More than Once in a While
by Yuvia
Poem inspired by the song "Once in a While" by Kasey Chambers.
If I wasn't what you wantedIf I wasn't even closeI only hope that I made you smile...Maybe more than once in a while...
- Kasey Chambers
And made love to me under the dim light of a tv screen,
While listening to somebody
who sold her dreams
For ninety-nine cents a minute
---- even more.
I never thought I would look back at those moments
And smile at the sight of your tears
When I turned and walked away.
I never realized how deep the cut had been
until I saw the ravens flying out of my open veins.
How blessed are those who forgive, forget, and renew!
For I am walking in the rain downtown,
Thinking of how many times I wished I'd never met you
For the sole reason that the freedom you took away from me,
Was the only thing that my past lovers had kindly left behind.
