you were afraid of me initially weren't you
i never wanted you to be like that
'you're too good' you said
i never understood those words then
but when you looked into my eyes i saw love.
and laying with you i told you
'i'm falling in love with you'
you said nothing in response
i felt your wanting to believe me
there was no hurry, love is love.
falling into your beautiful eyes
i felt my love growing time and again
slowly we began to say i love you with our goodbyes
and later we could say those words laying naked
i felt the need in both of us.
out of its spiteful reality
our destiny was to fail one another
of all the things we said to each other that day
the thing which cut me so deep were your words
'i never believed a word you said anyway'.

Painful when someone tells you they never believed your words .
A good writing , dusk 🙂
Yes, makes you question the sincerity of everything THEY ever did or said.
Yes , I understand .
... sheesh, the first cut aint always the deepest, is it .. outstanding poetry mate ... Neville
Thank you Neville. It was actually the final cut in my last relationship. A failure which has led me to live without romantic attachments in future. I'm just going to be self indulgent, weather permitting.
just you be careful my man ... I've heard there are folk got themselves locked up for that down these parts 🙂
Well the lines measure the rise and fall of falling in love
Love has its own tricks
I find it never plays fair and square
Wish it could be fair
Alas at times it’s more hurtful than serene
Well, just the last in a long line of mistakes I made.
Well human are prone to making mistakes and correcting them is called wisdom
So it’s alright, we can make mistakes
Emotive words d a very well written.
Andy
Thank you Andy.
Those words just erase everything, and question whether anything was real to start off with.
Precisely right..... what a waste of time and emotion. Thank you Garth.
