Music: Ben Howard - Empty Corridors
More than anything else, this poem is a tribute to my past choice and serves to remind me that it and he was not nothing. The last question still stands though



to Know

When I have tasted what one can only call
deep love
and still shower in that rain

When I have been nearer another human than I ever thought possible
deep inside his heart
and shared a whole life together

When I have known and felt to the depth of my bones what other lovers call
"you just know"

When I have felt the deepest betrayals
and yet our love survives

but not our name
our definition

only love in the format it was meant to be in
- friendship

When I know that I will never choose this man again

How can I ever know to choose
another?

I can love - oh how I can love!
but for more than friendship
choose?
