What will bring you to me

My ache asks…

My tears cannot melt mountains-

Sear Sky or scorch Sea.

You… far away on another plane

Cannot see my longing

Nor understand why-

Mind is such madness for you… only you.

I wither day by day

Into Despair.

You do not care.

Heart listens to no logic

Nor the wisdom of moving on-

Since you walked away.

I remain stubborn.

Pine and pain.

As if my Desolation

Will bring you back again.

Life laughs. Time ticks on.

Ages later ….Sense prevails-

Is losing a lover a great calamity…

Is not Suffering healing…

Elevating… Empowering…

Will I never find another love…

Can I not help another in pain…

And shall I not rebuild my life again…

The answers hit hard.

Unshackle from Sorrow

And selfish Misery.

I Rise… Strong. Free.

To a new Me.

And a finer Tomorrow.

The mind and heart know no boundaries. It is this infinity of ideas and feelings that thrills and beckons me to delve deep within my self and write my poetry.
