I Took It All For Granted Poem by Keitumetse Mokhohlane

I took it all for granted

You showed me your all,
All even through the distance
All had been well
Since I'd never seen your face!
From first chat,
There was this unexplainable connection
Phone hidden under a hat
You expressed your affection
I thought it'd be just a fling
As you made my phone ring
Ring at a ringtone of Stuart bling
I at times hid under a wing,
Wings of birds that'd sing
No one believed in us,
But you kept hangin'
While livin'
Livin' million miles away
Each day-:
Day you made a way...
And I have to say;
I took it all for granted!
I was foolish,
Foolish that I got blinded!
The breeze flew,
Your love I threw,
The broken pieces, I couldn't sew
I moved on, with just a few
You weren't deceptive,
I shifted, you took no move
And I,
I took it all for granted.
