A thought occured to me

Maybe my stories are all one-sided

Could it be we were both victims

Our visions were clouded

By our supposed love

Our Alleged adoration

Presented with Flowers, Hugs and many I love you's

As a demonstration

Of this nonsense that soon proved to be

Nothing but infatuation

Until reality rained on our parade

As it so often does

Reality came in the shape of a shapely female

Destined to ruin our perfect fairytale

Reality Rained, Snowed and Hailed

All over the place

I was once proud to call my heart

Made a disgrace

Of where my love and each one of my poems start

Ripped me apart

Like I was no more blood and flesh

Than the paper these words are inked and printed on

Then I watched as you left me

Watched you run away with her

Till you were both gone

Distant figures against the sun

Burned in my memory

A tale of a love that went on so long

Of a couple that thought they were one

And how they learned they were wrong
