Never Was

This friendship never was
This bond never began
It lived only in poetry
And sad songs which you sang

No word was ever true
All glances but a lie
In promise we began
In enmity we’ll die

You’ll say I broke your heart
Or even more your trust
You showed through your invasion
A dangerous form of lust

But then in your denial
The deeper truth we find
The opportunity that you craved
Was what you left behind

  1. Well said – you are so talented!

  2. Oh My Word!!!! This makes me want to fly to where you are so we can talk over a cup of coffee. Wow….I loved this. It really touched me.

    • Thank you – coffee would be lovely (particularly with some chocolate icecream on the side!!) , but I’m fine, it’s about a relationship from long in the past now. 🙂 🙂

  3. I can totally relate to this. I like it!
