When Push Came To Shove

As she choked down his bitter words she knew, Their love had died and they were through. Something had happened but she did not know, What had she done to cause her man to want to go. Whatever the task she had always given her best, But something or someone had put their love to the test. Always so faithful with no thoughts of being untrue, She dropped to her knees crying Lord what did I do? Then as if someone switched on a light she knew she was not to blame, As she raised her self up she said maybe two can play this old game. From her closet she brought out her sexiest dress, Her heart was breaking and getting even would not cure this mess. Tears in her eyes and her head in her hands, Mascara running down her cheeks as she tries to understand. What a day this had been and she wished it would hurry and end, She felt like she had been in a tornado and ripped apart by its winds. He just walked back into the house and she sat there and stared, This was the man she had loved with all her heart and thought he too had cared. He tried to make small talk but she knew it was over and had accepted her fate, He said baby I’m sorry but the message had come a little too late. She started to pack but he said you’re not going to leave, She thought to her self like you’re really going to grieve. As a matter of fact I think that is exactly what I’ll do, You don’t love me that is plain and I’ll not be a burden on you. This is just a poem that came tp mind and is dedicated to all the broken loves out there,Ron
