Here's a little poem I wrote.


Third Wheel

Us three together

Inseparable

United as one

Willing to do anything

For each other

But there are times

when I'm the odd man out

It's not deliberate on their part

It's just,

they get so caught up

with each other

That they forget

I am here too

When I remind them

I see

Embarrassment at being caught

Guilt for ignoring me

Annoyance at being interrupted

I let them know I understand

What I feel for them is

A brother's love

What they feel for me is

A brother's love

But what they feel for each other

Is a fire

a passion

Powerful, intense

So sometimes

I am the third wheel

But I don't mind

As long as they are happy

That is what matters.


Well, what did you think?
