Did You Know

Did You Know

I didn’t know then, that I’d play the fool.
I simply wanted to be with you.

I didn’t know that you’d use it against me.

You, thinking me weak . . .
I knew all along that this ship would sink.

Though, I could have never dreamed it
would happen today, not in this way.

I ignored one-thousand red-flags…you
telling me that it was “all in my head.”

I didn’t know, that my heart would fall
for you time and time again,
as we lay in that karmic bed.

But did you know, that I don’t regret
a single moment spent with you?

The love and laughter that we shared,
was at times . . . beyond comprehension.

I cannot compare you to any other
lover, no my love, you’re still special.

But . . .

Feeling like a balloon in mid air suspension
the bubble had to burst with pin prick . . .

And it did. My intuition was strong
I simply ignored it for far too long.

I’m not sorry a bit though. I take this poem
and bid you farewell, with blessings of
love and peace on your journey there.

Did you know? . . .
