REFLECTIONS
I go to rest and close my eyes...
but sadness looms, I can't disguise
the hurt, the pain that deep inside me lies.
It feels like rain and storms
crashing deep within ...
Then I'm left to feel the pain; the anguish,
No soul with whom to share ...
How does my heart separate
hurt from hate, from pain and torment?
I need a new heart, is there one for rent?
I try to see the bright of day,
a rainbow quickly comes to view
maybe for a moment, this is a day anew?
Our life together is all but over
The love is gone, no longer there
How does one share, when gone is the pair
To pick up the pieces, to mend the tears,
left from years unstable?
Could take another lifetime,
I don't know if I am able.
One golden heart has gone to waste
But if it still beats should I try my best
to save the little parts, which are all that's left?
I cannot see beyond my tears,
My heart is troubled, filled with fears.
A heart once happy, filled with life
Is all but empty, filled with strife
The thrill is gone, I must move on
I've some fragments left, there still is hope
I hope enough to help me cope
Should this life go on or should it end
There's still so much ... I need a friend

Dear Lia,
That poem has touched my heart. I can understand the mix feelings between despair & hope. I would share with you last writing ..
Never regret what happened in the past,
it is today that should trust
Misfortunes are bad but giving up is sad.
Never feel sorry for what was not done,
you have the time to make things run.
Life will not stop at what went wrong yesterday;
what count is what you ought to do today.
Never let go or feel low.
You are not the victim of circumstances,
nor the maker of crisis.
Never feel the shame and start to blame.
It is a poison to the soul once you loss the ball.
But tomorrow is knocking, get out and hear the call.
Cheers to you Lia. :)
