Peeler (2009) Poem by David Joel Rodriguez

Why have you not found your coveted way?
All that time rambling about life everyday
Strange how I happened to always listen
I knew I had not yet learned my lesson
Later figured out where you were headed

I took me long enough
picking up on your plot
Tears drained me alot
yet, I remained...tuff

Anymore Do I wonder where or what we lead
Tossing your hints under my nose as a friend;
And where was my mind when I met you?
What was it that night that I was to pursue?
Maybe it was I that had a thought to brew...

I thought you and dreamt you
long enough it surely took me
even though down on one knee
Your 'love' turned out to screw
