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…
