The First Disappointment

I thought, you would say: "Farewell,"

But instead you said: "See you later."

Why? To wound me such deeplyer,

Or to sweeten my sorrow veil?

For a long, you lectured me ethics,

Indignation permeated your teach.

I listened to the murmuring of your speech,

Yet much of it I did not understand nix.

Why you cast that ruthless reproach

In your  utter words—so stern, so severe—

That I have known so many loves ever.

It is true, yet I myself am an alone beach.

I dreamed so much of finding you

Across life's vast and open meadow;

You could have been my dearest friend now,

But our paths diverged in few…
