About the Poem

I'd been in love with this guy for almost 2 years when a friend of mine started dating him. Well she went away for a week and me and him had the best time together . . . this is about what happened and what I told her when she returned and found out.

First Yours, Now Mine

by Sarah

There is just one saying
That could describe what happened.
When the cat's away,
The mice will play . . .

Well, you were the cat
And we were the mice
You left us alone
Now you pay the price.
You knew that I loved him
And I'd do anything I could do
Just to take him away with me
And far away from you.
I made the mistake of loving him
But I do with all my heart
I've loved him longer that you've had him
And I'll be happy when you part.
But you made a mistake
You left him with me
And during that week
My love I made him see.
I'll admit that I love him
And he says he loved me to
So just leave us to be
There is nothing you can do.

A very wicked poem. This has once happened to me but I ended up asking sorry to my friend. In the end, we both left the guy and realize that our friendship was more important.
