We stand here together, yet alone
Just like two actors on the stage
I'm feeling so very frightened
As I bear the wrath of your verbalised rage

The parts that we play are not fiction
These scenes that we make are all true
The love that once lived here has died
I don't have the same feelings for you

This season has now run it's course
Time for this "play" to come to an end
Our lives are to take brand new paths
Time for my broken heart to mend

As we face the final curtain
And exit through the stage door
My mind begins to wonder
Will love adorn my aching heart once more?

There are many parts we play in life...the one you write of here is an unfortunate act.  I wish you the best of luck with future ones!  Great poem

Very gentle smile,,yes it will, and cover the scar tissue until brand new...I believe that, so please you do too.

Sometimes life isn't fair. Yet, sometimes long after its happened, you realize it was for the best. Just a personal experience. Take care.

I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps
