A Beautiful Disaster

The shadow of my hope is fading,
And I have grown to realize
My life is masterful pretending,
My truth means nothing more than lies.

The night from Saturday to Friday
Is neither 'never' nor the past;
I've turned back time, for it is my way
To let the sorrow go at last.

But this relief brings pain, much stronger,
It's just a mirror of my fear
To lose what's dead, it's mine no longer,
To think of what it hurts to hear.

Disaster...Lost love hurts and broken hearts seem like they never heal, but given time all things will mend...Paul
