Poem #138 To each their own……

Even as I sit here,
Shedding many a silent tear,

For all that it was,

I am already your past!

I wonder why,

You even gave it a try,

I was always complex,

How could we have been a simple success!

Wish you had left me alone,

In life’s misery to mourn,

Now you are the reason for my tears,

For all the lost moments and happy cheers!

Deep down I knew you would retreat,

Now I am so lost and incomplete;

I know not what life lesson you brought,

Only that I am more broken, than I was at the start!

I was fully open and gave you my all,

My mind in turmoil, on where I went wrong;

I feel so judged, but that’s my cross to bear,

I am glad you did not know, how much I cared!

I wish so bad, that my life was not so complex,

“If only….”, We could have been a success;

Here I go adding another complexity,

What I crave for is love and simplicity!

Somewhere in my heart I know,

This is right for you, so I try to move on;

As hard as it is for me to journey alone,

Life’s hard truth is, to each their own!
