I am not going to apologize, <br />for I can't see what I've done wrong, <br />except to keep from you, <br />what I have known all along. <br /> <br /> Because, I wanted to be sure, <br />I let this go on much too long, <br />it is plain we both deserve a place, <br />where we feel we can belong. <br /> <br /> I've seen too many unmatched sets, <br />and I am not one to forget, <br />the pain of forcing something, <br />that was never meant to fit. <br /> <br /> You never knew just who I am, <br />' nor I the same of you, <br />life's woven us from different strands, <br />you won't admit it, yet... <br />but, somehow know it is the truth. <br /> <br /> Let's be happy - - - <br />we were happy for a while, <br />we brought each other's lives, <br />some needed smiles.<br /><br />Barry Van Allen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/different-strands/
