~I Didn't Love You Enough~
O! I thought it was happiness,
To ditch the world, forget the mess,
And let the chips all fall where they may.
O! What I would give to block
For all my life, the vivid thoughts
Of all the foolish things I used to say.
All along, I must have known
That I was doing something wrong;
I should have told my heart not to bluff,
But I didn't love you enough.
O! The ways I masked the truth;
Pushed it aside, out of our view--
Held it down--unable to surface
Because I didn't love you enough.
But today I reveal all my deceit:
What you thought was Dog Chow, was really Friskies;
'Twas cheaper than all that Purina stuff--
Forgive me! I didn't love you enough!
My dog, Ruff.
A little poem I wrote a few months ago--I thought you might like to take a look at it, and smile!
