She wished to be together
given any chance,
and yet
there she was,
he was some place else;
she wished to hold him forever
entice him with words
or actions
whatever that might work,
yet he was somplace else;
she understood today
she could have followed him
and yet
here she is
savoring the love of one,
who deserves her,here and now.

An interesting poem. How does one deserve a lover?
he doesn't sound worthy of her.
true !
the one , here and now , is a different guy π
I know that feeling..when you pin what you need on one person..you've conveyed it well.. Perhaps we change a little the intensity dilutes but that person does seem to remain..Jae
This is not a simple story about thwarted love–there's a deeper story behind this one. Sometimes there is a reason why things don't work out, and having someone to love “here and now” is worth far more than a distant love, I think. Nicely done.
Unrequitted love… so sad until acceptance comes.
you got it perfectly !
I hope more people understand this on time π
but then, what can one say about lovers π
by loving without boundaries and expectations too maybe π
it doesn't hurt to ponder what-if, especially when it helps to solidify the choice made.
a really nice piece.
