Dreams besmirched,
Desperate search
Through festive church -
Wretched venue!

How was I
To say goodbye
When my heart cried
To continue?

Friends all said
You should be dead -
The lies you fed,
So destructive.

Left alone
I must go on,
The love I've sown
Unproductive.

A sad, indeed a lonely poignant read.

Oh, this is so sad Illusion. I enjoyed the rhyme scheme in this piece, and the clarity of emotions, well done!

Best wishes,

RSWells and Kit,

I admire your work so very much and appreciate both of you reading my attempt to make sense of what will never make sense. I sincerely thank you.
