what went wrong

As with many of my poems, I wrote this in response to a friend's sad tale of woe. �1990 Raine Wyndl

How could I have been so blind
The truth was there to see
Everyone else saw it
But I just wouldn't believe

It wasn't that you cheated
It wasn't that you lied
It wasn't that you were mean
It was just that we were living separate lives

Love came and crept out the back door
As silently as it had sneaked in
And we were left holding the pieces
Of everything we had once been

It wasn't that I cheated
It wasn't that I lied
It wasn't that I was mean
It was just that we were living separate lives
