Words can be kind but you prefered cruel
Thrown like a javelin
Piercing my still beating heart
What angry motives you display
Spewed like a child pouting and juvenile
But you are not a child
Those years are long past
Yet you refused to show restraint
Did I wound you
If so, I beg your pardon, for this was not my intention
Malice is not in my nature
You know this better than anyone
Can you ever forgive me my ignorance
For I know not where I erred
Clairvoyance has always eluded me
As does the cause of our rift
I’ve tried repeatedly to make amends
But my cries go unanswered
We have been confidants for a lifetime
Oh how it pains me that we cannot ford this divide
Yet my hope blossoms
That the hurt can be soothed
Reuniting us once more
By D. DiFrancesco
Fires burn,
They start out white hot
Then cool to a shimmering blue.
It’s not that the flame has diminished
The passion still glows, but its appearance changes with time.
We find comfort in one another, by being in each other’s presence.
A look,
Says more than words ever could.
Nothing can be said that you haven’t already heard.
Love, anger, sadness, all my feelings expressed in a glance
Sometimes I think you know me better than I know myself.
Maybe you do after all these years.
A caress,
Something tender and sweet
Your warmth, skin against skin, your beauty
Isn’t it fascinating how each of life’s seasons seems frozen in time?
My vision of you, still a twenty-something
So precious to me because of the spirit that is you.
Our lives,
The bond we share through adulation
Through friendship, endearment, and adoration
We have become one.
That nothing in heaven or earth can decimate.
My best friend, mate, and truelove for all eternity.
