‘Lies and a Love!’
Endless hours,
Of eternal waiting,
For a gentle touch
For one kind word,
You gave me a love
That is rich with lies.
Never a fleeting touch
That assures my soul,
Never a word filled
With compassion,
You said you love – but
Never cared enough.
Yearning, starved
For a tender stroke,
A promising kiss,
Neither, you gave me.
I’ve seen. Your love, is
Never beyond words.
