Only You


Another one of my Page One published poems. ©1988
 

Only you understood my shattered dreams.
Only you saw through my pain
And were patient enough
And were loving enough
To see through this mask of mine.
 
Only you made me shiver with excitement.
Only you never asked for anything
  more than myself,
And when my tears refused to fall,
Only you cried for me
And saw the something I'd never shown.
 
Only you had gotten that close.
Only you had loved me enough to set me free
And were understanding enough
And were caring enough
To know my heart was not yours to keep.
 
Only you had witnessed the heartbreak.
Only you had heard the laughter
  that was a lie,
And when we parted in sorrow,
Only you gave me something
That I can never return.
