Common Sense

Too far pushed away, For my love to reclaim yesterday, I was free to believe, To open petals to the sunshine! Now the bud is broken And the leaves have withered! Here I am, just a stem, the game: “She loves me” “She loves me not” This game has left me unfeeling, Afraid, uprooted and estranged! But perhaps, I am sad And should not be alone! All this time I hoped But you provoked me To leave without believing And you became a total stranger! Now, I am hurt too But where can I go? Roads divided, Dreams collided, Unhappy compromised While anger takes over! Trust and hope, UN-repairable, Are now buried forever! ©All rights reserved-2009 New York City
