Summer Of Twenty-Two

Same time last summer 

Why was it a bummer 

You had a deep need

That I could never feed.

When you said goodbye

Rivers of tears I cried

When I realized you didn’t care

I relearned that life isn’t fair.

I put it all on the table 

But your love was a fable

Painfully knowing all too late 

That to you I wasn’t great.

The passions we shared

Were beyond compare

Yet you took another lover

Your lies were uncovered. 

Not my lover not my friend 

Didn’t have my back in the end

It’d be easy to hope for hell 

But in the end I wish you well.

Ghosted And Dropped

In this time of crying.

You don’t see me there.

Gasping, choking, sighing.

Desperately, grasping for air.

Why did you leave me?

Where did you go?

Why must you deceive me?

I am reeling from the blow.

What did I do?

That wasn’t good enough.

Why weren’t you true?

This deception was rough.

All of your kisses.

Truly didn’t mean a thing.

My perceived hits were misses.

Hence, I was never your king.

I thought you were my forever.

Forever, plus a day.

In reality you were never.

Ever intending to stay.

First, you started ghosting.

Avoiding me in chat.

Barely responding to my posting.

You left me hard and flat.

You said you couldn’t love me.

When I told you “I love you”.

Your rejection, just crushed me.

At the time knowing not what I’d do.

So I bitterly reminisce you.

Now that you’re long gone.

And I’ll never again kiss you.

As you used me like a pawn…
