Your Choice
Sacrilege, blasphemy.
Solitude a sanctuary. Loveβ¦ itβs harder than it looks.
My own phrases now fill my mind.
The futures hard to find, in these waters dry, when youβre stuck looking in your past.
So, I ask, donβt look.
You feigned youβre interest in me, for which I mistook real passion.
In fashion I returned the favour in the labour of other options.
And was washed away in your fake love.
And I was caught.
I thought I knew better. Write a letter. Cry me a river.
But I fought my whole life for the fulfilment you couldnβt deliver.
So, I ask you this, on the highest possible stage, in the brightest light of day.
In hindsight of all your decisions,
Would you have decided in any other way?
Because I sure would(nβt).

another cool fish of the sea write! many guppies, but few giant squid!................................................................................Jim
My thanks to you Jim. This one brought me back a little π. Fun times. Sad to see how things change. I'm very grateful for your kind comment my friend. Thanks for the read
Hello Max,Β
Another good write here. I think the song you added reflects that you did indeed here let it all flow ;) I think love can give us quite the beating and testing sometimes. But it can have its rewards. We discover more about ourselves in its process. Your last few lines are the clincher for me. Hindsight would be a beautiful thing to have in life. In the song you shared. I think my favourite line was Β βWhy rise up, when the ego then go falling downβ sometimes we can mistake certain successes will bring along happiness and thatβs not always the case. Great poem and song you shared. Oh and I noticed the song mentions waters which is apt for the fish in the sea ;) Well thought out
Thanks so much for sharingΒ

Thank you so much Gwen. It was very rude of me to leave this un-replied for so long. Your kind words are sometimes the only reason I come back to this sight. So, I thank you once more my pen-pal friend.
Hi Max, all good my friend. It is lovely to find you on here, even if it isnβt as often. Thanks for still posting your poems for us to read :)Β
Love the rhymes you have going on here! The poem flows beautifully. Great work. Good to see you back Max x
Thanks so much Tina! Good to be back, even it it's just for a short time. I hope you have been keeping well! Sincerely, Max.
