It was purely by happenstance when I stumble upon images of your past <br />The one you chose over me after that fateful night <br />After the demise of your long awaited union <br />You told me: 'I should have married you' <br />Have you forgotten? You never asked <br /> <br />I was too nice, I was too kind, too available <br />It never occurred to you: It is because I was madly in love with you <br />And so I lost you.... <br />My world toppled over and I died a thousand deaths <br /> <br />It is so ironic if not moronic <br />After she slashed her Vera Wang wedding dress <br />You bought her another one <br />And still married that psychotic woman <br /> <br />Fast forward, years later <br /> 'She is out of the picture' <br />' I don't love her all that much' <br />Sure, you don't love her anymore she is toxic for you <br />It couldn't get worst than that <br /> <br />All the while: I suffered in silence and clandestinely <br />All the humiliation, I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy <br />You had no explanation only that: I was too kind <br /> <br />Though I am tempted to laugh at you <br />I am still here, loving you from afar <br />I may be imperfect in your eyes <br />But in truth I am flawless <br />Because I will still love you till the end of time <br /> <br />After all the fuss....after all those tearful nights <br />I watch your life: front row and center <br />You are alone and you pretend not to be lonely.<br /><br />June FeirCruz<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-one-you-chose-over-me/
