Small Town, Somewhere

Running, feet hitting the pavement
Cold, bitter tears fall, caught in the wind
This is how I left that place of might have been

Cynic's smile worn, hid the truth in dry eyes
Never stopping, not once, to consider compromise
With a finality, door slamming shut, another hope dies

Somehow, that last bridge never burned
Now, in another twist of fate, across it I turn
To nothing, ghosts, haunted nights, love spurned

Not a willing spectre, but a ghost who once dreamed
To watch it all replay in bittersweet moonlit beams
Remember ... nothing is ever as it seems.

Your time is here.  Take one last look at it, then never come back.  This part of your life is already over...

This is a sad write for sure.
Seems it's time to take another path.

But you never told me about the fire

I hope something better comes along around that next sharp turn.  Well done.  Joyce
