I smiled at their doubts,
secure in his love.
Now I sit in this

lonely place
at the back of beyond
wrapped in deepening twilight,

an unripe moon unable to define
blotchy words.

"no longer love"
"no one else"

I laugh and tell them
it was but a diversion,

my tears I will save
for this lonely place.

Enjoyed...interesting that you would associate a smile with a lonely place...
did the smile match the actions...James

Goodness.

So many questions
one can pick up from this.

Your poetry dwells in mystery, it does...
and it does it very well.

Oh...you touched me with this.  I hear your words and believe I should heed them.

An excellent write.
