Poems
Nov 2010
The price of chivalry
Got an issue? I can fix it.
Broken heart? I mend those too
But when you’re done and fly away
don’t take a piece of me with you
Just once I’d like someone to fix
the one that’s left behind
The one from way back yesterday
who was honest, true and kind
Who took the time to listen
to all you had to say
on who’s shoulder you shed many tears
in whose heart you live today
You see I have a secret
it’s that I am broken too
but thoughts of me get pushed aside
and replaced by thoughts of you
But if the past repeats itself
I know I’d do it all again
Even if the price for selflessness
is solitude and pain.
