Grown

A sequel to my poem "My Regret"

Those perfect words have fled from me
I don’t need them to help her see
That the guy that she had known
Has changed his ways and has grown

I know my hope is just a dream
Like something from a Hollywood scene
My words sweeping her into my arms
Then living forever among the stars

Now that I’m back in reality
I can say that I finally see
The most that she could possibly be
Is a real good friend to me

This thought does not bother me
For I am ready to let her go
But still I need to let her know
That the guy that she had known
Has changed his ways and has grown
