He was mine to keep

I thought

Until one day she came along shattereing all my dreams

And I was shown the door……

I hurt, I bled

Looked for a shoulder to cry  upon

A pair of arms to hug me

A pair of lips that would murmur ----

“Have a heart, take care, Everything will be fine,

He is yours, he will be yours”.

But can he be mine?

When he is already committed…..

How can I wish him away from his family?

How can I use him for my emotional succour?

How can I write those emotional words…

That have come to mean so much to us….

How can I hurt another woman

A tender soul just like me?

He is not mine

Even if he says so

He belongs to her

And she to him

What am I doing here?

I need to leave

I need to move on

To bid goodbye

Now Now Now

Or else I will never be able to do it……..
