Cold Spring Cleaning
I guess it wasn't worth that much
only a whispered sweet nothing
fading into thin air
just another broken promise or two
wouldn't make it worse
you never swept me off my feet
but you swept what was left of my faith
in you
off the floor
before walking all over it
don't forget your lies, dear.

Dear D,
Oh my how this one was felt around the world. The ache and frustration of lies and betrayal just makes me want to scream. You have again, captured this brilliantly in so few words as to make each one count twice! Excellent write and so well understood! H 🌷

I liked the way you approached this with confidence and understanding, it may have been difficult but it sounds like were pretty strong.
Great verse.

Thank you for this praise, wallyroo.
Perhaps I was a lot stronger than I realized at the time.
