The Right and Wrong
a choice in life whether easy or hard,
challenges our minds before we give the nod,
it may be sharing a toy as a child,
or charmed into love hate marriage beguiled,
many moments in life need a coin toss,
seeking head or tail for a win or loss!
journey sometimes in to unknown terrain,
lets frivolous fate decide future gain!
and that day I walked away from her,
sobbing she stood holding my last letter,
the bright Sun that evening shone dark for me,
our hopes died and two hearts did not agree,
simple problem made complex by my pride,
should have apologised, let kiss decide,
drowned in remorse she chose to be alone,
would have gone back to her If I had known!
love screams in my heart on a silent night,
wish I could turn back the clock - make it right!
