Lessons Must Be Learned.
You on your island, me on
mine, confined across the
ocean, beyond the bounds
of time.
I miss you most severely,
and wish it wasn’t so:
don’t follow in my footsteps
nor reach out for my hand,
for life has turned upon itself,
our future fell and burned.
it’s time to heal, to realign
so brutal..Unforgiving,
yet those that hear, obey
the call, in time shall
understand…..
The distance deep between
us, breathes air now freshly
swept, rivers run a silvered
course and rain is purely wept.
