John Fenn Poet Rhyme

You and I

You promised me the stars and moon 
You promised me the sun
You promised we’d be happy 
You promised we’d have fun

You vowed to me undying love
You said you’d always care
You said that till forever
You’re life with me you’d share

I hoped that I could trust you
I wanted it to be 
I felt that I could love you
I thought that you loved me

I fell for all you’re trickery
I let myself be snared
I misread all the signals
I thought you really cared

So now we’re not together
So now we are apart
So now I must start over
So now’s the time to start

So if you think about me
So if you shed a tear
So many years I’ve wasted
So, toodle pip my dear

John Smith July 20, 2011 at 11:04 AM 'It's better to have loved and lost than not to have loved at all.' Delightful poem; we know how you feel. Many of us have been there, so it resonates.
