Its not your fault

It’s not your fault…That smiles don’t pass my face these days.

It’s not your fault..that poems don’t happen.

It’s not your fault..that there is no celebration about nothing

It’s not your fault…that I have no friends.

It’s not your fault..that I had grey hair and wrinkles waiting too long.

It’s not your fault..that you were ever too busy or tired.

It’s not your fault..that you had priorities in place and choices to make.

It’s not your fault..that my love and pain both were too deep

It’s not your fault..that you could never feel so kind

It’s not your fault..that I had empty nights and vacant days

It’s not your fault…that I could never learn well the worldly ways.

It’s not your fault..that I was never a healthy match

It was not your fault..that you had offers to catch.

It was not your fault..that I was lonely and numb.

It was not your fault..that I was essentially dumb.

For nothing and no one

You were to blame.

It was only my tender heart

And it’s love too lame..
