IF I HAD NOT LET YOU GO
by Paul Curtis If I had not let you go What would we be now? The perfect couple? Mr and Mrs Right? Or sad reflections of ourselves If I had not seen That we were not right together We would now be Bitter and resentful Fighting like old dogs Scratching at each others wounds Love made us blind Your love for me was deeper And so you were blinder So it hurt you more When I let you go I was right to let you go I didn't want to hurt you Though I know I did But I would have hurt you more And I would not have regretted it If I had stayed If I had not let you go I would have broken you Broken your spirit As well as your heart You would not now know Loves true face So I can tolerate your hate To know you are truly happy I am a fifty something family man with a passion for writing and I draw inspiration from those around me. paul.curtis1956 @ btinternet.com http://www.dreamagic.com/poetry/poetry.html http://www.peculiar-poetry.com/ Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
