**************sweet Sorrows***************1978

Rating: 2.7


we met many years ago
in a time which we forgot.
i had really loved you
but you had loved me not.

you had taken me for granted
and turned my love aside.
you said you could'nt love me
and turned and said goodbye.

the years have come and gone
since that heartbreak night.
now we meet again in a
swinging dicoteque with lights.

you see me doing the hustle
with all the girls in sight.
my back is turned towards you
as you walk out to the floor.

you walk right up to me
as i had done before.

the thoughts flash through your mind
as i laugh and say 'goodbye'.

Backward wheeling of ‘sore memory’…of jilt…sometime makes magnanimous…other times vacuous …'sweet sorrow' is satire what I understand… thanks…sharing Ms. Nivedita UK 10/10
