Acquiescence

Life cannot be lived without the love of others

to catch a nightmare……

Chaotic beauty

is a train that never stops or deviates

but  lives with remnants that you have.

Love unites but seems impossible

Yet perfectly addictive…..

Only in memory can we hold someone close

and know the  reason you feel your heart swells…..

The waves block out the whispering sighs,

A withered tree betrays my heart

to find the road through the misted path.

No love to reduce to fetid decay

A crystal web with moonlight threads....

Hurting you was my crime

and to go in reverse to undo no wrong;

They say what doesn’t kill you makes you strong

I didn’t want a memory that gets in my way

to stifle the joy  I wanted to stay,

I have to let the days pass me on by.......

The hardest word really is... goodbye.
