Seeking

A swift pain shot threw the heart.
A numbness begins to start...
I feel the lonely cry torn from my lips

I know forbidden truth is about 
To unveil to the one I care about but must leave 
Alone for he shall only swim with a viper

He listens to her lies I ask the goddess 
And the green woman why
They answer me in their own way 

Green wise woman's answers with a huff history 
Is repeating itself making the same mistakes 
Hopefully he'll learn and once he does 
he'll know you didn't have the heart to him in anguish...

The Goddess response was similar but startling at the end
She told me everything but said don't trust him if he is so will
To sacrifice your friendship over a pitiful jealous girl make him 
Work for it back. And don't be so quick to give your heart to him he's 
Obviously crushed it more then once dear one...

I am taking their advice still to this day

This is to stormy Smith and our 10 years of friendship he threw away
