I Knew.... Poem by Lizelle 'Leasel' Martins

Sitting here with all these thoughts
With all these emotions of mine
Having its own dialogue
A debate with ‘Coulda, Shoulda, Woulda and If
Where do I stand in all this?
What do I want from all this
Do I even want anything…?

“Time can heal a broken heart
But it can also break a waiting heart”
Either way, mine has been broken
Unintentionally I would say
You didn’t know
But I knew
I always knew
Since our first encounter
I didn’t want to think about it
Till I saw Her...
