~I Wish She Never Knew~
I wish she never knew.
I wish my heart stayed quiet.
I wish it played possum,
but the world would never by it.
Her name may not be in my future,
but her understanding eyes mirror my past.
How did she conquer the barriers
erected firmly by the last?
My Mind’s Ear needs her voice
like the eagle craves the wind,
but I fly alone through the clouds,
penance for my heart’s original sin.
I betrayed my heart once more,
but it’s not a snake who hissed.
I wish my heart never knew
and love’s arrow missed.
