Wolves do Pant

Having gone past the words of no return,
I asked myself what I had learned.
Was it revenge because I was spurned?
Or that I was heard when it was my turn?

Either way I lost my chance
To be with her at my High School dance
To fight my way back to romance
Nope I won’t go there, I’ve taken a stance

  1. I think there are probably many of us who think back to romances that did not bloom. Love your writing Michael.

  2. there’s no return
    over bridges we burn
    we can’t ever replace
    what we lost in the race
    we must look ahead
    not on past words said
    revenge will never be
    what sets us free 🙂
