I gave




I gave you stories never spun,
Wove cloaks never worn
Belief in causes never cared for and
Gods never born

I gave

Composed you songs never played
Laughter never erupted
Idols never worshipped
Tastes that never bursted

I gave

Treasures never discovered
Adventures never taken
Ships never set sail

I gave

Everything I didn’t have
Everything I would never have

Dreams never dreamt in the fold of sleep
Tears never wept in the pit of despair
A heart never won
No masterpieces
I gave you none
For you existed only in my imagination
