One Way Love  – Written early 1993 (Aged 17/18)

One Way Love

I felt little more than a fool—
so very cruel.

I lived
for our moments together,
foolishly believing
they would go on forever.

I believed in what we had.
I believed—
yes, I did.

But I was
young,
naive.

It became so clear—
too soon,
you never believed
in what we had.

James Garratt – 1993
