Our love flew out the window <br />Tossed out like an old pair of shoes <br />It went out soaring like an eagle <br />Glad to hear the news <br />If I could hold my life in my hand <br />It would be something hard to understand <br />It would be something I could not plan <br />Excuses passed around like cheap wine <br />Excuses that turned to lies by design <br />Excuses that hung on a tattered rope <br />Choking any chance of securing hope <br />Our love is drowning in a river of despair <br />Floating aimlessly in the current without a care <br />And as it slips out to sea <br />Our grip of love slips away tragically <br />The truth was hiding behind the lies <br />That we let flourish as love’s disguise <br />What a paltry game we played <br />The battle lost before the dragon was slayed<br /><br />Alfred Ramos<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-slipping-away/
