I should have known was not meant to stand alone

A rondelt string

I should have known was not meant to stand alone

 

Rondelet

 

I didn’t know

How much you meant to me

I didn’t know

That I would miss you so

Until you chose to go

I didn’t know

 

I chose to go

It seemed to me you did not care

I chose to go

I could no longer stay anywhere

Where you might be; too hard to bear.

I chose to go.

 

You had your chance

But decided to ignore me.

You had your chance

But missed your opportunity

You showed no interest in me.

You had your chance.

 

Should I regret

Deciding that I must move on

Should I regret?

Making this decision

I can accept the past is gone

Should I regret.

 

I do not know

The only thing of which I’m sure.

I do not know

Is it possible to measure?

What to discard and what to treasure

I do not know.

 

Perhaps you knew.

That is was nothing but a dream

Perhaps you knew

Things are rarely what they seem

Chose to protect my self esteem.

Perhaps you knew.

 

Dreams can come true

but sad to say infrequently

Dreams can come true

For those who think positively

It is a possibility

Dreams can come true.

 

I won’t forget

How unkind you seemed to be

I won’t forget

Your indifference to me

But I was wrong apparently

I won’t forget.

 

I will never know.

If you ever felt some regret

I will never know

If my going made you upset.

 and gave you reason to regret

I will never know.

 

I made my choice

Which has proved to be correct

I made my choice

I know that I cannot expect

anything but to accept

I made my choice.
