“YOU FORGOT TO LOVE ME”

WAS NEVER ALL ABOUT ME, 

TWO OF US, ONE ON ONE, NO NEED FOR THREE, 

YOU ARE THE ROOTS AND I THE NIMBLE TREE, 

YOU PROVIDED ALL THE NUTRIENTS NEEDED FOR THE HEALTH OF WE, 

‘ROUND THE TIME WHEN, 

MY LEAVES FELL OF AND SUMMER WOULD END, 

NOTICEABLY I NOTICED A SHARP DIFFERENCE IN YOU THEN, 

SOMETHING CHANGED THAT I SIMPLY COULDN’T COMPREHEND, 

EVEN STILL I STOOD BY YOU AND WITH CONCERN ALWAYS ASKED YOU FOR I KNOW WHAT I AM, 

I KNOW MY ROLE, I KNOW I AM YOUR GREATEST FRIEND, 

ALL THE REST OF MY DAYS ON EARTH TO YOU I WOULD GIVE NOT LEND, 

NOW I SEE THOSE THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS I AM ALL ALONE IN, 

I AM BACK HERE ALL OVER AGAIN, 

ALONG THE WAY WHILE TOGETHER WE RAN, 

YOU SUDDENLY STOPPED AND TURNED THE OTHER WAY – NOW WE ARE GOING IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS, 

AT ITS PEAK HEARTBREAKING DEVASTATION, 

NOW I WALK WITH THIS HURT AND SEVERE PAIN WHILE GOING THROUGH SEPARATION, 

MY DAYS NOW SO FILLED WITH DEGRADATION, 

WHEN IT COMES TO LOVE I FEEL NOTHING, BUT PURE INTIMIDATION, 

I STAY AWAY FROM ALL COMMON POPULATION, 

KINDA BORING NOW, BUT IT’S MY FORM OF CELEBRATION, 

REMEDIATION, 

A SPOUSE LIKE YOU IN HOPES TO FIND A DAILY CONTEMPLATION, 

HOWEVER NO ONE WILL EVER REPLACE YOU SO MY HEART IS IN DEEP INCARCERATION, 

LASHED UPON FOR MANY YEARS HAVE NOW PASSED ON, 

LAUGHED AT, AND OFTEN TEASED UPON, 

AVOIDING MIRRORS NOW MY GREATEST DESPERATION, 

ONE DAY WHILE WALKING A COUPLE RAN TOGETHER BY ME WITH LAUGHTER AND SO FREE, 

AND AT THAT VERY MOMENT I REALIZED WHAT YOU FORGOT, AND WHY YOU RAN BACK THE OTHER WAY…..

YOU DIDN’T STOP, BUT RATHER FORGOT TO KEEP LOVING ME.
