I look in this cool, windy Spring for some relief of the solitary days that follow me some solace where I keep the days from remaining the same that lonely truth which is as plain as the look on my face a simple understanding of the days that follow me
that subtle inclination
dire in the past
where tears rage
Only wanting that hope
yet too many ghosts jeer
in haunting glee
shattered like glass
those reflections
cold to the touch
bitter...
hardened....
jaded....
knowing that what was meant to be
somehow
no longer exists
for you and me
we walk our separate paths
and in that
lessons are learned
