I melted with you

A Poem by butterfly

I melted with you

Maybe it led to my doom

I am not ashamed of the love we did make and do

It was real to me even when the pizza was more important to you

I will cherish the good

My heart will rest in memory

My soul will still dance to that melody

Its the love that moves me

Still here I am on the eve of the year of 43

the love has aged me

He has abandoned the dream

For it was something never in need

but how could he truly stay

i fell weak in a foolish game

Yet I am the winner I was brave enough to kiss the flame

I saw his light I thought perhaps maybe it would lead someplace nice

It was a mirage of paradise

I traveled so long in the desert I could hardly be blamed

I know more of what I want

the memories no longer haunt

I dont miss you

I let us go and i slam the door

i let it go and turn away forever more

He was the same as all the frogs before

Something tied to a ball and chain

Lost in a place without affection and instead abuse and pain

We were a recipe for making something insane

its funny because the taste was so good

I just wanted to keep you

not realizing I was walking to my doom

All that love making and heart aching

I was lost for good

I melted with you

Its funny what is a game to someone

Is real to another one

we live on the same planet but on different planes

I am not ashamed I fell for you

All the sweet things you said

left me confused in my head

so the path was clear to get me in bed

My heart rests in the memory

Knowing that only love's sweet melody

moves me

what made you call i will never know

what makes one look outside for someone to hold

while a wife waits at home is something truly unknown

I let it go

for even though it did me no good

all i found was doom and gloom

I am not ashamed of this truth

I melted with you

Keeping love alive, very hard dear poet.
"Its funny what is a game to someone
Is real to another one
we live on the same planet but on different planes
I am not ashamed I fell for you"
I liked the honest tone of the above lines. It is sad, we can forget what held love together for two people. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.
