My Dear Friend I Accepted
i accepted
you in many ways
i accepted
when you pretended
to want to be with me
to see you in a way
that was not true to thee
i accepted
when you wanted me
to see you in your true way
i accepted you
when you seemed strong
when you seemed weak
when you needed me
when you decided i was broken
and you moved on
& needed nothing from me
i accepted you
my dear carissimi
i accepted you
when you tried to influence me
when you tried to let me be free
when you wanted me to move on
when you wanted me to hold on
i accepted you
when i was not good enough
for you to acknowledge
to even know me
i accepted you
when you were angry
when you were sad
when i thought you gone mad
when you thought i gone mad
i accepted you
when i thought you were my friend
when i thought you were my foe
when you were neither friend nor foe
I accepted you
