The Wrong
Met my lover on robotics team
Cold and rainy wet that day
Stood there gazing in his eyes
and my mind drifted away
Tried to drum up a conversation
But I really didn't know how
But he stood there and he listened
even though I didn't know what I was rambling on about
So I decided to stop talking and write a little poem
About his hair, and his eyes, and the happiness bestow him
To my surprise he told me to meet him there that day
We chattered, and laughed, and he talked and talked about his crafts
We talked ourselves in innocence
We took a lot of time
Relieving each others emptiness
I thought that I could try
I said he should be proud of himself
For everything he is and does
he looked at me and smiled and I caught the butterflies
of love
We talked ourselves in innocence
We took a lot of time
Relieving each others emptiness
I thought that I could try
he told me I was beautiful
Called me one his own
I told him I would never leave him
or toss him like a stone
The beauty and the harmony began to unwind
Our lips began to pucker and our bodies intertwined
I never had this feeling, I never felt so alive and aligned
We talked ourselves in innocence
We took a lot of time
Relieving each others emptiness
I thought that I could try
So he went home that same night
But a different look fell on his face
Almost like he was in disgrace
I knew I didn't do anything to make him leave that way
But he called when got home
Here's what he had to say:
To tell me he didn't like me
and used me in his way
To chew me up and spit me out and throw me away
Oh, I remember how I cried
and the tears pouring down my eys
But its time to turn away, I must move on
even though he's gone and he crippled my faith
Maybe one day he'll realize that he was wrong
