Forgotten Flame

Its been so long, but I remember your face
The sound of your voice, and even your taste
The overpowering scent of your perfume
And even the grace, with which you entered a room

The way you said my name
And treated every awkward moment like a game
I wanted you so very much
But you were too young, and I didn't want to rush

Though we stopped speaking, I never forgot you
And the words I spoke, still remain true
I know you moved on, and probably don't even care
But if you ever needed a friend, I'd still be there

I know its probably too late for us
But I guess its for the best, I confess
That I wasn't the man I could have been
And that in itself, is a sin

As much as it hurts, I know I'm to blame
For leaving you labeled as a forgotten flame
I'd do my best to make things right, given the chance
Or I might freeze in place, due to your trademark glance

It'd be a lie if I promised I won't love another
But I could have been so much more, than just a lover
I know our time has come and passed
Though it seemed to go too fast

My only hope, is that I'm forgiven
And you know, I finally gave in
I'm all alone now, like I left you
And I'm the one, lost, without a clue
