It Wasn't Love ...

Kurt Philip Behm

It wasn’t true ...

but what is truth

It wasn’t real ...

but eyes can lie

It wasn’t mine ...

or yours to give

It wasn’t love ...

but hearts still cry

    How true that can be Kurt put in such a poetic manner. Nicely done my friend and a fave

    Thanks again, Soren.

    What a haunting piece, Kurt. The spare structure, measured pauses, and emotional restraint create an ache far greater than the poem’s size. It reached into some painfully familiar territory for me...beautifully done, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
