I wish I’d lied
When I told you
The truth
Of how I felt.
How nothing matters
When you speak,
Or when you
Leave me out.
I wish I’d lied
The time I said
I think of you
At night,
And how the sun
Is worthless if
I can’t enjoy
Your sight.
I wish I hadn’t
Told you
That I’d marry
On a whim,
Or that I said
“I Love you.”
Whilst the chorus
Sang their hymn.
I wish I
hadn’t spent
Those sixty years
Right by your side,
Or helping every way
I could
Those years
before you died.
I wish that I
Could have kissed you
On the night
That you were slain,
For even Lucifer
Was spared from
This unending pain.
If even one of those
Had been the real,
God-awful truth,
I wouldn’t be
right here today,
a-hanging from this noose.

This was so poignant. I wish all people, whether male or female could learn to say what is in their heart, but some times it just isn't the 'right' thing to do. My favorite quote is: To thine own self be true. It says so much, doesn't it?
I feel you have a great gift with words... your poem moved me so very much.
Warm hugs,
Kate
