Multiple Choice

What a crazy week it has been
running into old loves
in one form or another

first it was him
when he showed up at my work place
then drove into my drive a few days later
while we were working in the yard
he ask if that was the one I was in love with
I smiled and said yes
please won't you come meet him
it seemed strange at first
but felt good when he said
he's a lucky man

then while shopping at the mall
I saw the other when I went into that
unique tribal store
I'm not sure why I even entered
seemed the music drew me in
I was so glad he did not see me
I hurried to pay for my purchase
and exit quickly
while looking back trying to escape
I literally ran into you
you commented that I looked like I
had seen a ghost
and I returned the remark
saying, I have three to be exact
and they are all alive

you ask how I had been
and I told you I was seeing someone
things were going good
you seemed saddened by my remark
and stated you had hoped someday we
could work things out
I ask you to be happy for me
and you muttered
I just can't form those words
I am not sure why it was important to me
that you wish me well
but it was

I told you
I felt like this was a test
and you know how I hate test
especially multiple choice

but at least I know
the right answer this time
