Treat others like you want to be treated


Your name comes to my mind
but not all the time
all the memories we have
have made me so glad

But now you're back in my life
maybe this time it's not right
you stress me and make me mad
but all of that makes me sad

Maybe I need you in my life
but you're way out of sight
I ask you what you want
but all you say is one response

You want what we had
but that was the past
I can give you something new
but you'd have to work for it too

So maybe prove me wrong
and talk to me all night long
get me to see what I did before
so that I don't get up and go

Because I have someone new
and he sure loves me too

This poem was written because an ex of mine came back in my life expecting me to run back to him with no thought but he's not the one for me.
