My patience, tested; my heart, broken,
All this, while nary a word between we two, spoke!
More than deserving am I of your respect;
Though not for one moment did you-circumspect!
To the whole world did you dare shout-
As a fire, blazing wild-up to you, to put out!
What was cause for your such absurd thought?
Think now of the lessons your acts have taught!
Every day since that fateful one in November
I struggle to make sense of the waste of love I remember!
All made worse, by belief that you may not do wrong,
The road you have made for me, difficult-though, my heart is strong!
All seems to lead back to but one conclusion-
Comparison betwixt me and another, causal to your delusion!
