I'm Ready For Love

"You didn't love me until it was too late";
It hung in the silence like stale
Cigarette smoke, poisonous,
Claustrophobic, fragrant.

 

I know you are right,
Your nonsense always seems to make sense,
You didn't have to say it,
I already knew.
But baby please remember,
While I was busy loving myself,
There was no time for loving you.
