Emile Pinet Poet Quatrain

Let's Pretend

Why not say you’re mistaken,
it was the wind that you heard?
And when I dropped to my knee,
I hadn't uttered a word.

Why don't you just shrug it off,
and admonish me out loud?
Let’s pretend, 'twas but a game
to amuse the passing crowd.

If we say it didn’t happened,
can we not forget this eve?
And should you feel offended,
just ask me to, and I'll leave.

But, what if I did propose,
and those words came from my heart?
And now, I'm crying inside
cause you tore my hopes apart.
