The Time

It was the time to say our goodbyes
To turn and walk away
We thought it was fine, not to toe the line
And we had to pay
It was the firts glance, the thought og a chance
If we got found out, well OK
Now I'm alone and sat by the phone
Wondering what to say
If I rung you, would you want me to
Or just to keep away
Were you sad, when we had what we had
But circumstances came in the way
Please let me know as I still love you so
and think of you every day

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

I can feel the melancholy emotions in this poem, Kath, a sadness and a longing. Nicely expressed. I hope all is well. JOhn
