RetentionA Poem by Riley BrayI'm still trying to mend something that was lost a long time ago...I never thought you'd let me drown Never thought you'd let me down. But I realize now amidst this mess That I was wrong, a pawn at best. Through all the tears we cried And murmured lies. Through mindless nights And sad goodbyes. Through changing hearts And horrible art. Through friendship darts And daunting smarts. The time ticked on Those days are gone The ugly ducklings are now beautiful swans But I'm standing alone, watching the dawn. Oh how I long for the days, That we were one.
