taken as someone
who once gave a damn
living each day
with all that I am
brilliant in morning
dull now by noon
whispers in shadows
that end way too soon
you taught me of love
but held me at bay
singing your song
your heart betrayed
nothing but wisdom
comes from your brain
and still I'm transfixed
by each new refrain
once more we parted
once more I swayed
knowing I wasted
so many a day
what could I do?
when truth held no reason
when trust was at risk
heartbreak now in season
