Nora And I Poem by Godfrey AnguaMante

Nora and I were high school friends
She said she liked how life’s will blends
She and I had a slight difference
She lied to me and her tight, good friends
2
Nora and I used to stand on the beach
And watch at length at the tide’s good speech
Nora and I had one problem
She liked to sing songs, I liked anthem
3
But Nora again had a very good voice
She sang to me some very good noise
But Nora had a tiny little wish
To go to England or turn Irish
4
Yet Nora and I were pretty much tight
I fought for her and lost every fight
Nora again had her way with men
In all my misery I just knew ten
5
Then Nora told me she was with child
I looked into her eyes and cried out loud
She said she had drank some good health sap
It was for abortion, in a poisoned cup
6
Then Nora said, she felt ill inside
Her tummy was hurting, or so implied
Then Nora collapsed before my very two eyes
The Doctor said she died, to my surprise
7
For Nora and I, I always do cry
I went to her funeral to ask her why
With tears in my eyes, and a dark aura
She broke both our hearts, I loved Nora
