One Way Street

Just because, I’d like to share a poem I wrote many years ago.

One Way Street, by L.M. Nelson

Love, not returned,

Affection, no response.

Communication, nowhere.

Things done for her, not one.

Demands more every day, it seems,

Unwilling to give back.

Her feelings not acknowledged,

Her heart begins to crack.

Romance, nonexistent,

No interest in her needs.

No matter what is said or done,

Her heart just bleeds and bleeds.

 

Running down a one way street,

About to crash and burn,

Get off this street and find a route,

Where love will be returned.
