once

once, we were reluctant lovers
correction
i was reluctant
more precisely, hesitant
you gave freely
and then we left
and now i revisit
my decision
or lack of decision
and know
i know
that it should have been
very different

    I feel like this has just happened to me.
    That I'm the 'you' in this piece.
    Very strange that you should unwittingly be writing about my life.

    I have just discovered your blogs...I have seen you at Diane's Addled Ramblings.

    Great poem, you could have written it for me, only I was the one 'who gave freely', now I live with sadness and regret. ♡

    hey dianne - thanks for visiting.
    and thank you for your kind words.
    sometimes we are better for the giving.
    sometimes not.
