M's Poetry
In The Wash
I never would have guessed
you and I would be friends
I'll never say never again
I've spent hours on the phone
and all the rest
I guess I fall the fastest the best
and every night glimpses of regret emerges
I stepped into a disaster
one of my own making
After all is said and done, it's over after all
you barely cried as you waved goodbye
and it all comes out in the wash
I've spent hours in the rain and dried out somehow
I am pleading the fifth to your charms now
and every time the morning comes
I wonder what I've done
what did I hold onto or let go?
and friendships like this shouldn't be so hard
and love shouldn't leave you with scars
but sometimes it does, more than you deserve
and you think it is just your luck
maybe it's just the person
so now I am cautious to ever let anyone
in so close...to see my true self
to let all my emotions run free
like clashing colors that come out in the wash....
