Confusion
Frustration
It's all the same
Why does he love her
When she's to blame
He could do so much better
He could do no worse
I wish she'd be carried off in a herse
Yes, this may sound harsh
But he's been hurt by her before
I just want to protect him
I don't want this to happen anymore
He's all grown up
I must leave it be
He makes his own choices
So why did he pick me?

What a surprise ending! I was expecting
either anger, generousity or self pity

Instead, It surmised them all

You take Care

I like this poem. Great ending... However, one point... You spell herse hearse... I know how to spell it as a result of being to too many funerals.

Time flies? Say it not so, time stays we go.
