I Told Him

I told him I'm stepping back ,I just want to be your friend
I guess that is the kiss of death,loves end
I told him we have no common link,no place to go
He asked if I ever loved him,I answered, I don't believe so
I told him it's time we moved on,find others to fill our need
We never shared a garden of love,we didn't plant the seed
In all this time I'd never spoke of love,and there was a reason
Seems love wasn't living here, or it was out of season
I told him there wasn't any us,that I was stepping back
Still I hunted that common link,The one we seemed to lack
Today I walk through my garden of love,though fields of clover
I told him what we never had,what we never could find, was over..

Can't beat a dead horse

Gloria,

If the spark isn't there a blowtorch won't help. You were correct, time to move on.

Pete

you're right

Not only was there no spark my friend even the coals were cold.Thank you for your comment.

Gloria
