Literature Text

One fateful day while you were off at bootcamp,
I said goodbye for good.
Our relationship was over, and I thought we both understood.
Now a year or so has passed,
and we still talk sometimes,
but when you talked to me last night,
all the words you said before were lies.
I knew that you were torn, dear brother,
between me and your new love.
Now it's time for you to decide,
to break it off with her or go to me.
I see no point in saying, that you've made a mistake.
This is something you did on your own,
and now how much pain will it make...for her.
Do not apologize to me,
for 'tis not my heart you're breaking.
Look at your new love,
for it is her heart that is aching.
Make a decision, stand firm and true,
for it is the only way I will come back to you.
This is a poem I posted on Poetry.com about a decade ago...about a previous relationship.
