Took the Hurt

Took the Hurt
Noel Laflin
1-10-16



A kind lad told me long ago,
Veiled in a cry, whispered low,
'I'd take a hurt - never give one.'
Soft the words from one so young.

I knew the fear, recalled a past
When love was lost in a lapse. 
And so I promised not to be,
The one to hurt - nor deceive. 

But I failed in this endeavor,
Losing trust altogether.
So now you know who cried the day,
He took the hurt - walked away.
