Where was your love? <br />When I needed your love <br />Where were your hugs? <br />When I was soaked in my sobs <br /> <br />Where was your love? <br />When I needed your love <br />Yours was never near <br />Nor were your wandering ears <br />As you were hardly ever there <br /> <br />I will rather talk about this now than later <br />A fire can be quenched by not only water <br />People speak of no smoke without a fire <br />I speak of hate born not just by greedy desire <br /> <br />You haunt me, a ghost from the past to boast <br />Where was your love when I needed your love? <br />Where were you friend when I need you most? <br />You gave me the shoulder along with the shove <br /> <br />Where was your love? <br />When I needed your love <br />Where was your care? <br />When I cried rainy tears <br /> <br />With shattered dreams on broken wings <br />Where was your love when I needed your love? <br />When I lost the will to sing a simple octave <br />What mattered to you were your lousy flings <br /> <br />With a thin line between love and hate <br />My dear old friend, my dear old mate <br />Let me be clear and completely straight <br />Love has disappeared at a very fast rate<br /><br />Sylvia Chidi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/where-was-your-love/
