Sunita U.D Palawon Poet Free verse

Is Time Really the Great Healer

He landed in my life when I least expected him.
I knew not how to manage his advances, at that time.
His seductive air and cajoling were so irritating.
I said to myself 
“Let it be…he will soon tire out and leave!”
But wrong, I was proved when a year later,
I was hungering for just a call from him.
So drastic was the change in my life,
That I recognized I had made the wrong wish…alas!
One regretful day, I had scoffed him so coldly that
He had said “let it be…” and had left the day after.
I never knew what happened of him.
But I’ve kept waiting and praying that he comes back.
And I wonder if I will ever forget him.

Andrea Dietrich August 7, 2017 at 5:27 PM gosh, Sunita. Did this really happen? I would be dying if it were me and I had let a man like this go. GREAT poem to make us feel a woman's regret. Sunita U.D Palawon August 8, 2017 at 2:20 AM At times, regrets come later in matters of heart particularly in the dawn of youth when we are all confused about our emotions and are overconfident. Alas!....I'm really touched by your move and your visit is so much appreciated, Andrea. Hugs Sunita
