T’was just like yesterday
When I saw you with that cake.
You looked blooming and happy,
But in you eyes I saw agony.
Looking back through all those
years
I was the reason of your falling
tears
Threw the times we spent together
‘Coz I left you for another.
As time went by, each passing day
You met another along your way
And as I lurk each time in your
facebook
I noticed how he has brightened
your outlook.
I must admit that I felt
thankful,
The wife I chose not to have is
now joyful.
For in the strong arms of a man
who I thought was gay
This lovely bride will live
happily day by day.
But destiny has its own plan,
Left you again, broken and damned
Those words you exchanged, ‘I do’
Has now become meaningless, too.
As time went by, each passing day
You tried to smile and feel ok
Held yourself up and put the
pieces together
Each broken step of the way has
clearly made you stronger.
But in your heart you feel the
pain
It pumps questions up to your
brain
With an unexplainable fear,
Will this bad luck ever disappear?
Suddenly I heard my sister,
‘Take the cake and do not pester’
I was not honest, I could not
tell her
The sight of you has made me
falter.
Yeah, I know.. I have no position
I have no right to give direction
I won’t object if your conclusion
Is that in your life, I was a
poison
But please my dear friend; hear
what I need to say
It won’t take an hour, much more
a day
Don’t you dare consider your life
as a failure
Behind the tears in your eyes, I
know there’s a great future.
Broken relationships do not
define who you are,
It just reminds you, life’s not a
sweet cookie in a jar
Look forward and cast the bad
things away,
In no time, I’m sure, you’ll find
someone who’ll stay.
