Poetry: Love gone wrong

by Lesley Aeschliman

When we first met

I thought I was in a dream

There was no way you could be real

Or that our love was actually true




Everyone said

That I should stay on my toes

And that something about you seemed false

But I didn't want to believe




I came to doubt

When rumors started to fly

And when those rumors proved to be true

I decided to say goodbye




Now I'm happy

I'm moving on with my life

And someday I'll fall in love again

And move on from this love gone wrong
