Compose a poem based off of this quote and theme of “in another life”.

If Only You Were Mine

With fluttering heart and stumbling feet I went to seek you out Finally finding the courage to speak The love I felt, out loud But to my grief you weren’t alone And a light shone in your eyes Her hand fit perfectly in your own Where I’d dreamed of placing mine I wish “right person wrong time” were true And I could wait for your heart to heal But I know I’ll never be right for you And our love was never real Now idly by I’ll sit and wait As you both grow older together It seems that me and old heartbreak Are destined to always be tethered In another life within my dreams Our souls would intertwine Our hearts would beat as though in sync If only you were mine
