It’s with a heavy
Heart that I admit
That I am scared
Breakups are never easy
Yet here we are
Once had now gone
I will miss you
And what you promised
I did love you
But then you cheated
With the one that
You promised to avoid
You promised me that
Never shall we mingle
And yet you did
I should’ve expected it
Seduction is always sweet
Until the apple bitters
And it always does
Strength and faith
Come from within
Power and belief
Come from without
One is Heavenly
The other Hell
To be completely honest
There’s not much to
Celebrate here this year
In America it’s like
We’ve all been told
That all the characters
That promised us things
Are dead and no
One else is coming
So why even celebrate
Any of the holidays
Never minimize your accomplishments
For to one what
Might seem like a
Pebble and to another
A stone yet another
A rock to many
A boulder and to
Most the mountain don’t
Forget that whatever lays
In the path has less
To do with their
Size and much more
To do with how
We perceive them to
Laying here in darkness
Listening to you breathe
Reminded of yesterday and
So many other yesterday’s
That now here turn
Backwards like the pages
Of a forgotten book
Abandoned as we picnicked
On those autumn afternoons
The beauty we are
Is not what has
Already been written but
What is yet to
Write and then to
Read in the dark
While you are sleeping
