28 Days

By Joseph McGowan

Maybe it’s for the best, Oh yes, that I let you go
As for our love, I guess, we’ll never know

Of what could have been, though nothings meant to be
What we had was special, and will always be special to me

For I had you for just a blink of an eye, for 28 days in my life
For I had you and that’s why I will cry, for 28 days now cuts like a knife

Oh yes a man can cry, and if he does he’s no less a man
and if your wondering right now about me, you know that I ‘am

For where ever there is love, heartbreak is soon to take its place
I think to myself that’s just the way life is, as I wipe the tears from my face

The tears that fall like little drops of rain, upon this poem I write to you
For your someone I will never forget, And  I never meant to hurt you

Fighting back the tears to try to finish this for you
Fighting back the feelings that now leave my broken heart in two

28 days full of laughter, music, passion, poetry and now tears
28 days I will remember for the rest of my years

Maybe it’s for the best, Oh yes, that I let you go
As for our love, I guess, we’ll never know

Of what could have been, though nothings meant to be

Still  you’ll always have your 28 days for which to remember me
