The music ended so suddenly bodies froze in mid step deep melacholy settled slowly like brown molasses dripping down the side of an open jar How could it end this way something deep down inside shouted no, screamed in pain, is this the end, all there is, this cannot be, it’s a mistake Too much effort has been made too much time spent learing all those intricate steps repeated over again and again until the movements flowed smoothly Without effort,in perfect harmony two bodies moving as one,thinking as one,committed to a single goal the survival of the matched pair was it all for nothing, wasted, What went wrong, when did it begin, who lost the beat and stumbled first not that it matters now in retrospect, the damage has been done, the errors, so many it seems, cannot be repaired Move on, find another partner, begin the dance anew, a fresh start, forget the past and the old song, there is a new orchestra now and, it’s time to dance. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Very sweet, and sad. Very hurtful times in someone's life. Seems it ends with a look to a new beginning. Nice.  SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer! |

Life's experiences portrayed as a song. This is well done Pegasus. I hope the music goes on for you forever. Love, Joyce |

Shara Rose, Joyce, you are very kind.Life after all is a song. We just don't like the words and music sometimes...  the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Pegasus~ 'Move on, find another partner, begin the dance anew, a fresh start, forget the past and the old song, there is a new orchestra now and, it’s time to dance.' LOVE the songs, the dance, the partner ... and LIFE !! Loved your upbeat ending~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

pegasus111: This poem has your own special brand on it. You have such a way with words and make emotions so visible. Hope you have that new partner! Betty Lou Hebert |
