When love called
Love called and it clouded my
mind,
There was something about you
that struck a nerve,
Slowly but surely I left
myself behind,
It didn’t take long before I
saw myself serve,
I was lost and you were all I
could find,
I never invited love to come
in,
I assume it was love at least
in the start,
That’s where losing myself
would begin,
Who I am and why would
seemingly depart,
You’re smile suddenly became
a grin,
Still I loved you with all of
my soul,
Never a thought of any
betrayal,
Honesty was not it turned out
your goal,
Though I tried I was doomed
to fail,
Your heart became blacker
then coal,
I convinced myself it was but
a mistake,
The third time you lashed
out,
My love forgiving you didn’t
shake,
After all it was what love
for me was about,
All I gave was not enough for
you to take,
My love remained when you and
yours left,
And time has healed my
wounded heart,
Slowly but surely I am no
longer bereft,
Time is healing my shattered
parts,
If love calls again I will
speedily have left.
