Love Elsewhere

He is yours, sharing a life

Being with me, there would be strife;

A risk, a choice difficult take

Even for the love you cannot fake.

You have captured his heart;

With you he can’t seem to part.

He is independent and strong;

But his façade can’t fool for long.

Take care of him, hold him tight;

You are with him through the night.

To my heart he has the key;

In the draw he leaves it be,

To share his life with you;

He made a decision, who knew.

All I wanted was a chance

But it’s you he wishes to romance.

Please know how lucky you are;

He is one in a million, by far.

Respect him and love him

Even if he is being a tad grim;

He chose you and the life that could be,

Live up to his needs, I have let him go free.
