PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

How is it so discarded and strewn

not a second thought

someone who so fiercely you love can push you aside

the decision made from outside your grasp your choice taken.

 NO MATTER THE WORDS, ALL seen as opposition

even when it is hurt and pain……

all history erased

all moments poisoned

all gone

It is as if  someone else has taken their place

a changeling 

no recognition

not even a blip on their radar

but when caught in a lie 

effort forced and stilted

awkward authenticity

righteous indignation

that they have somehow been victim

unknown , without understanding 

How do you mourn the loss

finding artifacts still in the house of the past

digging into wounds and burning like fire

I cannot ignore

nothing, out of love or understanding will reach thru the walls. 

only a sad lost hope that someday 

knowing that day will not come in your heart.

that it is gone 

except for the artifacts and photos,

the memories 

and the what could have been 

haunting me just out of sight.

while watching your joy moving on without.

  How do you mourn someone as they live
