Bittersweet

It looks like it’s over today

The silence beats loud in my head.

Confused and disappointed; I pray

Reviving the last words you said.

Searching for some message clear

A reason might reconcile this pain.

Was it maybe that I finally faced my fear

And allowed someone close once again?

I suppose it really doesn’t matter

All and all, at the end of the day.

I am awake…my dreams they scatter

Wish it were easier to walk away.

So now, it is about letting you go;

Releasing you…stopping this fight.

Wonder asks if I will ever know

Love…

Beyond MY dreams in the night.

Forgive my heart, it’s been broken so long

You felt like Spring in my Wintery season.

Reviewing past hurts and how they went wrong

Guess I hoped your love offered their reason.

Apparently there is more to learn;

Before love is granted her cardinal dance.

For now, my spirit continues to yearn;

From the bittersweet taste of the chance.
