The Returning Poem by Jasjiv Singh

The Returning

Rating: 5.0


So you thought coming back was an option,
Without having fulfilled your task?
I can clearly see through your fake skin
You might as well take off this mask.
What good are you to me now,
Just another failure to endure?
I put all my trust in you,
You promised, swore, seemed so sure.

There ought to be anger, frustration inside,
But for you it’s only pity in my power.
Why do you always let me down,
And take advantage of the the love I shower?
Another chance under me you desire,
A last shot at redeeming yourself?
I gave you all chances I possessed,
Even the one I had saved for myself.

Apologies won’t help your cause,
Neither tearing up so loud.
Leave this place to wander the world,
And lose yourself among the crowd.
We will learn to live without you,
Will learn not to trust with eyes blind.
Don’t ever try to revive this dead relation,
‘Tis my last request, please be kind.
