The last time you looked at me in that way
My heart broke into a million pieces
Shattered and falling there were no pleases
They were sad and I saw no approval
I drew them in the angry accusal
Please tell for why were they wrought
With darkness and sadness and anger aloft
I’ve only ever tried to please
These games of hurt they must cease
I’ll finish this now for you will move
Forward you see I’ve won you’ll lose
I know in my heart there is no regret
There’s nothing my love I will soon forget
All that you were and all that you do
Was always for them But mostly for you
I’m glad that I gave you the lift that was needed
Consider this a the greatest peace treaty
Ever written for you my friend
You presumed me wrong I’ll never condemn
You to hell for this tragic story
You lead me a long for close to forty
Years the string tied to both our hearts
Is fraying now and tearing apart
One last chance to bind us together
The old song goes it’s now or never
Beautiful poem. The emotions came through.
