Loving Loyalty

A Poem by A Foiled Soul

Loyalty is true in the event of love.

A girl walks in,
Says she needs a place to stay,

I wasn't thinking,
Said okay any day,

She said my name's Lindsay,
My folks are out of town,

I've been searching,
It's you I have found,

As she leaned in for a kiss,
My heart skipped a beat,

I pulled back,
Giving up this delicious treat,

I said I made a promise,
There is a girl that I love,

I said I'd wait for her,
Even if I'm dead above

Lindsay understood,
And as she turned to leave,

She attacked me with a hug,
Stating I want you on this rug,

Grimly, she turned,
A look of despair,

I felt bad,
I tried to be fair,

But then I remembered I did love,
Ashley was the girl,

I swore I'd wait,
Upon this world,

So while I am tempted,
I am not,

Ashley is the one,
I've already fought,
