DOUBTS
By Ld Marduk
There are many times,I thought I understood,Believed that what I longed for,Was something that I could…In time, somehow acquire,Yet now, I have my doubts,For though I loved thee dearly,Such all but now amounts…To nothing more than folly,For thou never felt, as I,Thus, was it all lost,Yet n’er did I wonder why…Until I thought I understood,Believed, in what was, a lie,For in that moment, I believed,My doubts...to set aside.Yet, even this ‘twas not to be,for my heart and soul were wise,for the doubts that I possessed,should n’er be compromised…For they art meant to shield me,from the folly that is part,of what occurs when one assumes,One knows anothers’ heart.And there are many times,I thought I understood,but alas, I was mistaken,For ‘twas I never could.For though I loved thee dearly,my doubts have e’er remained,that thou would e’er, feel as I,yet I did so, all the same…For there art many times,I thought I understood,alas, I was mistaken,as thou knew I would…Thus I but fell victim, to the folly that is part,of my quaint assumption,That I but knew thy heart.
