MY DARLING

Can’t imagine being intimate
Then never seeing you again
Shared my deepest, darkest secrets
Said that we were more than friends.

Lulled into a world of fantasy
Sucked into the abyss
Was lured into the darkness
With one long and lustful kiss. 

Lying naked for the taking
Yours alone to touch …. to hold
A vulnerable position
My being …. to behold. 

All consuming trust and innocence
Led to my own demise 
The bond we shared together 
Was built upon your lies.

No serious intentions 
No plan to follow through
Living for the moment
Now, there’s nothing I can do. 

The shame, remorse  …. unyielding
You made a fool of me
After everything I did for you
Now you ignore me, totally. 

It’s not easy to imagine
Someone could be so cold, so cruel
I should have seen it coming
Should have never trusted you. 

Vanished over night
No forwarding address
Just a note that said, 
“My Darling, I really could care less!”
