7. The Second Love

"The Second Love"

You once told me that you are my destiny,

that you would always belong to me

because from the past, you were liberated

and, finally, I was the person to whom you were fated.

You once told me that I had glued your broken heart together

and, your love for me will be forever;

even the ghosts from your past,

when you were in my arms, crumbled into dust.

But your words weren't true

For you had decided to go

like a migratory bird

seeking temporary refuge when winter

invaded its real shelter.

Oh, you lied to me

Your kisses,

embraces,

promises

had all gone to waste

when you abandoned me.

But eventhough,

I would still like to know,

No matter how painful the truth would be,

when you were with me:

Were you feigning emotion

when we make love with a passion?

Were you lying

when you said it was me you were dreaming?

Were you seeing someone else

when you stared lovingly into my eyes?

Or was it nothing but a dramatic script

when sweet words came from your lips?

I tried to give you everything,

I have done anything

just to make you stay

and to prove you that I am the one

who was destined to you 'til eternity.

But my efforts were all in vain

and I was left to endure a shattering pain;

with a broken heart to serve as a memento

of how easily you let go

of our relationship

just because your first love

came back to claim the precious thing I thought I have:

Your Heart.
