Love In Quatorzain
Is there something you want to tell me my love (?)
because I have things I need to say to you;
I thought we had forever that we would grow old,
together- and be looking back on a life sky blue !
Why did you not listen to me that cold snowy day (?)
you just laughed at me and left;
I was still sleeping when the telephone was ringing !
Ringing and ringing and ringing- I answered,
now, I stand at your tomb and you are gone, gone;
your face will haunt my every moment forever,
tell me why you left that day, John (?)
I am so angry with you and I love you so much,
they say it was an accident- was it my love(?)
I wonder sometimes about that !
