PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Only a few things were asked of him

Basically only two in the end

He didn’t do wither for me

Now it has become hard to mend

I asked him not to lie

But of course he did

If there is one thing I can’t stand

It’s a man who always fibs

I asked to be able to see him

And see him I did not

Once in a while isn’t too hard

Of course what was what I thought

I let time pass

Maybe he will change for me

I really hope he does

I gave him plenty of time to see

Resistant to change is he

He couldn’t be the man I needed

I gave him the warnings and clues

None of which he headed

So now he’s gone

Although it hurt me so

I did what I had to do

And that was let him go

It hurt him

I knew it was going to

But I did what had to be done

And that was find someone new

But the unexpected happened

I felt the pain of six whole months

Just as he had felt

It was more than even a bunch

No regrets I say

Nothing we did I wish to take back

We did so much with each other

Forever I will treasure it and that’s a fact

Goodbye my first love

I wish you luck on the journey ahead

I hope you find a fantastic woman

One to which you will be wed

As a chapter in my life slowly closes

I smile and simply say

I enjoyed that that last part

I wave and go upon my way
