Echoes of Mistakes Gone ByA Poem by Lena M. P.Helena"s Blue Rose Cafe ~ "The Road Not Taken" entryI shall be telling this with a sigh Of a choice made once in haste Of a love allowed to die Because of vanity and lie I laid my life to waste.
Two men vied for my heart one day One fair of face and pockets deep The other plain but kind and gay He offered his heart but I turned away From good to evil passion I did creep.
I promised to marry the true of heart But glitter blinds one from the truth I slipped away to play the part A harlot, cheat and party tart With the cad I spent my youth.
Older now and wiser too Looking back I made my choice He gave his soul to a partner true While I sit alone my past I rue The echoes of mistakes my only voice. © 2013 Lena M. P.Featured Review
