The Third Wheel

Couldn't be more happy for the two souls in love,
I watched them,
Lost in their complete world,
Their happiness, the laughter, the joy,

My mind swirls in memories,
Of my scarred past,
When I too was a believer
Of love's eternal cast.

I walk with them laughing along,
Trying to let go
Of your memories,
I can’t take this anymore,

Out of the blue you stepped in,
But now it is all a blur, with a pain within,
Again, it is them with their gestures of love,
Again I smile, seeing the light in my friend’s eyes.

I begin to wonder,
Life’s wrong turns and love’s twists,
I will never love again, nor be deceived by love’s tempting feel,
I will be alone and be the third wheel.
