‘All my troubles seemed so … ‘
wait
already been said
besides the dawn
held my attention
the day before
in such a manner of loss
I didn’t want
to compete anymore.
Let us be clear
I was not
in a competition
with love.
More assuredly was
my ego
put to the test,
was I so important
or did I need
clarity
regards
another person
in pain.
Let us be clear
I was not
in a competition
with love.
’I said something wrong, …’
oops,
there it is again
words can define our lives
though sometime
we do encounter
compassion
and we hold on
with every fiber
in our being.
’Why she had to …’
I just can’t finish the line.
Let us be clear
I was not
in a competition
with love
‘All you need is love’
