There remained in my heart
a love and a pain
that I thought I had forgotten,
eradicated from my soul.

We were never in the same boat.
I was shipwrecked
while you fled
in the vessel that took us
to an ocean of uncertainties,
of unfulfilled promises.

I think that if I had the chance
I would make a different wish,
I would give up the magic of love
and stay on dry land.
Because even though loving you wasn't a choice,
if it had been, I wouldn't have accepted the pain.

Thanks for visiting.
