Requiem To Broken Dreams (Love Thrown Away) Poem by Wilfred Mellers

I sit now and write you this letter
For I feel I deserved better
Is it that you couldn't face the day
Is it why you throw my love away

Our life had just begun
We were having so much fun
Could it be you couldn't face the day
So you just throw our love away

Your best interest I had
Never I meant to make you sad
So you couldn't face the day
So you throw our love away

I never meant to hurt you
I told you I would never desert you
I told you I would not lie
All I ask is that you give my love a try

You were my precious buttercup
But you said red flags went up
Now this is quite the fact
On you, I never turned my back

Are you afraid to face the day
Is it why you throw my love away
I don't know what I've done wrong
All I did was sing you a love song

Again alone and afraid of the dark
Broken dreams has now made its mark
Lonely corridors trod I ones more
Opportunities passed throw now a closed door

Curator now of broken hearts
Guardian of hopes lacking smarts
True lies sought for broken alibis
Pondered efforts the blind child cries

Weep no more my willow tree
Reckless decision made for you and me
For you, all was not as it seemed
So goodbye to you the summer I had dreamed

Winter approaches with hurricanes thrust
Season went without acquiring trust
Autumn looms with a chilling touch
Romance fades questioned too much

Lessons sought to lessons learned
Hands placed in fire will surely get burned
Is that why you couldn't face the day
Is that why you throw my love away

Shattered promises placed all in the same basket
Unstable ground shook laid now hopes in a casket
For now, I'm left to face the day
For you throw my love away

Sit now and try to read
Baron soil love planted I the seed
Hollowed hearts now will bleed
Solvent soul, no more I will feed
Words spoken now I heed
Blind leading the blind I will not lead
Sacrificed the day for all good deeds
lucid nights on waited needs

Could it be that I wasted the day
Did I throw my love away
A rift in time or a dimple
For now, it all seems so simple
