Intuition
Yes, I read all the words you wrote
I know exactly what you said
It’s the words between the lines
That hurt and has me seeing red
You told me that you loved me
Yet you need a little break
You need some time to think
There are changes you want to make
You told me you were faithful
She was just a casual friend
She was easy for you to talk to;
There was nothing there to end
Yet, you work till late at night
You’re too busy there to call
And if I do not trust you
I never loved you, for real, at all
I’m not exactly sure what happened…
When did we forget to talk?
Remember the lively conversations
On our daily evening walk?
Remember all those picnics
When you would sing to me;
We’d make love for hours
Beneath the weeping willow tree
I recall the times you’d hold me
We would sit and watch the rain
You decided that was a waste of time
And I was filled with pain
We let our lives get busy
There was no time left to share
I feel I’ve now been set aside
And you no longer care.
