Moving On



There is, strangely, a comfort in despair
To have lost something so precious
That will never be again.
For that moment in time, you are devastated
Torn to pieces that can never be mended
Knowing everything is now changed.
~
But, at least you knew where you were
You were here and miserable; utterly
And there. There are your tears everywhere.
You knew you were at the lowest point
You knew it would take time to climb up
You knew from whence came the pain
~
But now time has passed on and on
The tears are drying. And the pain
Subsided. And the seas no longer rage.
The nights are not so long anymore
The days bring forth light again
Now and then a smile bursts forth
~
But you are no longer there... Nor quite...here
You cannot return; nor is the future ready.
And so you are on a precipice
Gazing into the horizon and pondering
Your existence. Lessons learned. Mistakes.
And where will the path take you now...
