LotusVele in Poetry & Free Verse

Always second...

I've held my tongue

I hoped you'd see

You'd realize

It's her

Not me

You can't let go

I see it now

The past's familiar

You can't see "now"

But don't you see

She doesn't care

She knows you well

She'll not play fair

Her new life

Is one she wants

But life for you?

I know she taunts

You feel obliged

At her demands

You ask me wait

And change our plans

My patience thins

Though I remember

We're most happy

When we're together

But love will wane

When it cannot grow

And then she'll win

And let you go...
