I Could But Why Would I? Poem by Byron Cornell Ford II

I could offer a thousand times
advice
provoking thoughts
loving suggestions
but you would never think twice about those

you always wanted me to show how much i cared
you never could just realize it through my actions
i loved you more then any other ever will
and i always will
i swear....

i do sometimes want you as mine for the time
being nothing without you has made me everything i am
everything you never were...
the girl of my dreams has become

she replaces you nonchalantly
if she doesnt belong, she doesnt mind
she knows her time is coming
along with her ring
her happiness
and my love....

i could offer you the same, yes i could, but
why would i?
