Washed Away

Washed Away

Washed away
in a tropical storm
swept into the gutter of lost love
down into the deep dark drains of
oh, how I wish it could’ve been different?
 
it’s the only way I can describe losing you
in torrential rain and hurricane winds
that just wouldn't quiet
 
until that precious moment
I let go of your so called love
and let it all just run free
 
by opening my eyes
and closing my heart
 
I did it
 
and now?
I will never, ever again
leave home
without a heavy-duty umbrella.

'that just wouldn't quiet'
lost loves even if they 'force' us to lose them Shirley never stay quiet do they. Like martyrs they seem to grow in their absence. Great write love x
