To You

To You To you my love I want to say, that I'm leaving your life today, with hope of forgetting you, because to me - you nwere never true. It made me sad when I found out. I cried for days and many nights. I went outside and cried somemore, then someone passed by and asked me - what was wrong? With tears in my eyes and pain in my heart, I could not answer. He nod his head and and walked away and said that he would be back the next day. The next day he came back and left me two verses. and I started to sing. The first one said - I am now leaving, the world is yours, you are now free so let it be. The second one said - your sweet words were nothing, but sweet lies. What you promise me was never true - that's the reason, I'm leaving you...

Well... You did the right thing by leaving (just my opinion.). I like the circular nature of the piece, or maybe it's more like a "C" shape, not quite closed? Jack

HE sounds like a cad to accuse you in his note of those very things he was guilty of!!! Sad one, and I enjoyed the read, Lucilla. Why don't YOU try the ABC poem contest? Poets here are doing some really fun ones.

This is sad in its beauty! Hope it is just a poem inspired by something that isn't true to life. Thanks for sharing!
