As I write this...

By: Vincent Paul Gonzales

I sit here and I write this…
Curious and free…
Because you let your love and devotion,
Slip away from me…

I shrug it off and wonder…
How this came to be…
Do you realize what you lost,
Do you realize, everything?

Our love has ended,
I've dried my eyes…
You should have seen the endless tears
That once escaped my eyes.

I cried because I loved you…
Please notice the past tense,
Because to you my heart's not accessible.
To you, I've built a fence…

I don't need any heart break,
God knows, I need no pain…
So I write this little poem now…
To chase away the pain…

I would have given you everything,
Had I everything to give…
But somehow my all wasn't good enough,
Because now, you lay with him.

It okay though 'cause I know it won't last,
At least not for very long…
Soon it will be all up in your past,
And you'll realize that you were wrong.

And on that day I'll smile…
'Cause when you come back to me…
I will belong to another…
And it is her, I'll be cherishing…
