ALL BUT OVER
Just how could this possibly happen?
Leaving for reasons unknown.
Unsettled now is this solitude.
Always a moment of uncertainty.
Remaining leaves only the bitter aftertaste of wormwood.
Potent and deadly!
Deep in this heart of hearts,
Even in the brokenness of a love
That has shattered as a mirror.
Each jagged shard cutting deeper
Than the one before.
Seems never a time to heal.
Frustration mounts by the hour.
When will peace come?
Or, will this find even me?
How can I allow myself to have that.
Just a simple pleasantry.
Will my rescue ever arrive?
Am I worthy of that redemption?
Will I ever recognize it?
Or, perhaps this anxiety has gone on
Far too long.
That any reconciliation is not available,
Especially for this disgraced one.
Leaving for reasons unknown.
Unsettled now is this solitude.
Always a moment of uncertainty.
Remaining leaves only the bitter aftertaste of wormwood.
Potent and deadly!
Deep in this heart of hearts,
Even in the brokenness of a love
That has shattered as a mirror.
Each jagged shard cutting deeper
Than the one before.
Seems never a time to heal.
Frustration mounts by the hour.
When will peace come?
Or, will this find even me?
How can I allow myself to have that.
Just a simple pleasantry.
Will my rescue ever arrive?
Am I worthy of that redemption?
Will I ever recognize it?
Or, perhaps this anxiety has gone on
Far too long.
That any reconciliation is not available,
Especially for this disgraced one.
