THEREWITHAL

No logical idea WHY
i still love You . . .
Because you LEFT me
back when I sooooo
wanted to move
give up my
United States Citizenship
on the ledge, on the brink
of fruition ----

You called our union OFF

Was it something i said?
Your Bestie told me
i took too long

Never neither knew
nor realized
there was a timeline
dated with secret gossip
AND stupid innuendos!!

It has been 3 or 4 or 5 yrs
since you tore my heart
apart and i admit,
from time to time
(BUT NOT OBSSESSED)
i think about You
about us
about my slothfulness
& …………..

Anyways,
Perhaps
i dodged a bullet
or maybe
i dodged commitment

Either way,
i dodged something
& …………..

STILL

i now and then
think of You
But not pining
not wanting
not hoping

STILL
