Loving Two, Not Only One

"Until the fish learns to fly Or until the birds learn to swim" You will be my light, my light In cloudy even dark days of my life Hugging and holding me so tight Sometimes squeezing even breaths of me Building dreams of tomorrow Love flying heights like the sparrow I have believed and love you Entrusted my heart to you Breaking rigid laws to be next to you Holding tight or lose to keep you Yet, what have you done! What you have done? Loving two, not only one! You left me without proper goodbye Darting me, dead shot on bull's eye Bursting me, from a haven of bubbles Letting me fall. from heaven to hell Backstabbing me, sudden and hard Letting me wander and wonder, why? Why oh why?! Droplets of salty water flows, night and day That even summer sunshine cannot erase Deep cuts of joyful memories Becomes a resonating sad requiems Here and everywhere a bask of blues Casting me elsewhere as I remember you Betraying my love that's true Oh my God please carry me through!

Hi Olive_eloi, I have just stumbled on this heartfelt poem of yours. I see it finished 2nd...congratulations (although somewhat belated now!). You merited this win...betrayal always hurts and leaves the heart full of pain and sadness. Hopefully you won't have to suffer like that in real life :) cu // paul
