Simple Words early in the morning

He told me once that he was in love with his friend's wife.  I thought to myself what a lonely love that must be.

I always wondered, but didn't ask, what were his plans, what were his dreams?

Did he plan to take her away from the man who had been a good friend?  Was he waiting around, hoping his friend would die so he could claim what he prized so dearly?  Or would he pine away for a love he could never fulfill?

As far as I know, he never freed his heart to love another.

And she never knew how he felt.

What a lonely love, to love another man's wife.




(Simple words which came to mind when I heard this song early this morning and remembered a conversation with a friend)
