I gave you my best smiles and my bearest hugs
I bought the tastiest yoghurt and the most
expensive chocolates
I turned you on all the time
I woke you up to listen to the church bells
on Sunday morning
I let you talk as much as you liked
I kept you up to watch the dawn and wrote
you poems that didn’t rhyme
For you, I wove patterns of love in an
endless tapestry of dreams….
But all you wanted was the time
I wasn’t with you
And you left because I didn’t
give you enough.
