just a poem
My heart on the line, the words on the page

Cannot change your mind or ease your rage

With a great deal of sadness and tears of pain

I carry around my ball and chain

You sit alone in your chair

To read these words, you do not dare

An open book the story flows

To which our love can decompose

It’s ended now and you are gone

I know now what I did was wrong

Your still not here and I’m still not there

To read these words, you do not dare

Time can heal all but wounds

Within me now this all consumes

Bottled up and sent to sea

I know nothing but you and me

I love you though you’re unaware

To read these words, you do not dare
