The Choice Poem by David Degnan
The Choice
Once there was such passion
moments shared for hours or days
replaced with such tension
we cough a laugh and move on
Years ago you insisted
I extinguish any feelings
That I had for another
I was to be yours alone
But what you keep
in your heart for another
you won't release it
you nuture it and so it remains
Now you have no desire
just a sense of obligation
to keep for them a home
where we all sleep at night
So I must wait for you
to make time for us
a few minutes together
as our day ends
You say I will regret
if I force you to choose too soon
which says to me
the choice has been made
This is such a powerful write, you say in gripping detail how you feel, and there are so many instances you throw in there with the fewest of words, like snapshots, showing life and how your situation unfolds... many will relate to this poem. Oh, and by the way: Need more poems from you! ! ! And this is a mistake I won't make again. I love you. me
