Taking a chance, entranced,
by your look and scent,
My attention, drawn in the direction
that you went.
Lonliness tested and bested
my mettle,
Having lost hope, I decided to cope
and just settle.
Careful not to reveal that I feel
so relieved,
or am I?
I've been treated so wrong for so long
been deceived.
I can't believe, I finally receive
The woman for which I was hopin'
And now that she is here, I fear,
My heart is too calloused to be open
by your look and scent,
My attention, drawn in the direction
that you went.
Lonliness tested and bested
my mettle,
Having lost hope, I decided to cope
and just settle.
Careful not to reveal that I feel
so relieved,
or am I?
I've been treated so wrong for so long
been deceived.
I can't believe, I finally receive
The woman for which I was hopin'
And now that she is here, I fear,
My heart is too calloused to be open

imo, Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely. Expressive and thoughtful, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLimitting my love in one relationship has caused me more pain than all the times my love went unreciprocated, combined. Thanks for reading.
