Deep in my heart I knew it would end
Who was I kidding? I want you more than a friend,
Years ago that would have been fine
But back then you didn’t really want to be mine,
Now we are talking a decade along,
Where I have a family and thought you too had moved on,
Yet I’ve found you regretting that missed chance we had,
A feeling I share of course and that’s what’s so sad,
My words have since flowed as they still hold true
And again I find myself loving you,
It aches me to know your feelings - all too late,
Bad timing or what? We’ll just call it fate,
Therefore my heart breaks as I walk away from you
But painfully I know it’s what I must do.

i know how much this situation hurts, i really do, pallie.

but at least you made the right decision.

there's a lot of raw emotion in this. and i can see untapped potential too. i always like that in a write. it means i can't wait for more.

welcome to pip.

The soul is oftentimes a battlefield where reason and judgement wage war on passion and appetite.

Greetings, Abena! Welcome to your new home away from home! This truly is a circle of kindred spirits where we share our thoughts, feelings, philosophies and dreams.

"Therefore my heart breaks as I walk away from you
But painfully I know it’s what I must do."

~ That takes courage and strength ~ and I admire that in a person.

Life is all about timing and when the timing is off, it can be a real bummer. But, I do believe things work out as they are destined to be.

Giving you a warm, welcoming hug,

Earth Angel

Thank you for all your kind comments.
I'm working on a more contemporary verse, but don't know how it will go down with you all over the water...eek!
Hopefully, I'll have some brighter stuff after I get this all out.
