NaPoWriMo – Day 28

Ex-lovers & Co

Why didn’t you love me, truly, madly, deeply?

The way I always loved you, entire, whole.

Why was I always climbing a hill steeply?

Just to be noticed, all the time you stole.

My time, my passion, my greatest love.

You had a wife and children too.

I thought once upon a time, hand in glove,

you would leave her for me, something to do,

To show I was important, necessary in your life.

You didn’t do it, we settled down and I made do,

with unfulfilled dreams, battling your love for your wife.

I sacrificed myself to the best sex I knew.

You were my first love; you will be my last.

Can we be friends not lovers? I think so.

You, probably not. Show compassion as you didn’t in the past.

Let us be firm friends, let us be ex-lovers & co.
