One Hundred Yesterdays Ago

You should have told me

One hundred yesterdays ago,

You wished

No committment,

No 

We!

You should have told me

One hundred yesterdays ago,

Your kisses

Had no meaning...

Your arms,

Shackles to enslave

Passion only.

Oh, if you had only told me,

One hundred yesterdays ago,

To believe nothing

Of what you said,

Nothing of what you did.

I would have laughed less

When we were together;

Not held your hand so tight.

Would not have turned the pockets

Of my heart inside out, so there

Would be no clutter, of other loves

Long passed.

OH! 

OH!

You should have told me,

One hundred 

Yesterdays

 Ago!
