This Affection I have
It wasn’t the road that kept us apart
Or the hours.
It was his lack of desire
And of appreciation.
He brought out tears always
And caused me to doubt.
I knew where I had fallen,
And loved truly.
But he never took a glance
And never gave me the chance.
I found myself inside a cloud
Too stubborn to fade.
In the end he broke my heart
And never had a care.
So in that pain
I let myself be what I needed to be.
I’ll leave him alone,
Not for him but for myself,
So that this feeling lets go of its choke hold
And I am set free.
But he was my first, And somehow I’ll love him till I die.
