In Better Times

Sometimes it's better to let something go
And maybe it's our time to part
But if our love is meant to be
You'lll know it in your heart.

I never meant to hurt you
Though I have in many ways
I only meant to love you
And make you smile everyday.

We've both suffered our losses
We know how life is tough
I've given all I think I can
I guess it's not enough

I guess WE're not fulfilling
To me WE were just fine
Maybe our love is faltering
But won't in better times.

Have you noticed how they sparkle?
My eyes do when you're around.
Did you notice how I smile?
How my feet lift off the ground?

Do I really make no difference?
Are my efforts done in vain?
Should we just take a long break now?
And end at the start again?

We've both suffered our losses
We know how life is tough
I've given all I think I can
I guess it's not enough

I love you more than ever
Which will be my heart's demise
I think our love is faltering
But won't in better times.

I know that I'm not perfect
There are flaws in my life too
I wish that I could change them
So that they would not harm you

Your sarcasm hides your feelings
Where mine show through the cracks
I wish that I know how to just
Put our love back on track

We've both suffered our losses
We know how life is tough
I've given all I think I can
I guess it's not enough

There's no use in feeling sorry
For I cannot change your mind
I know our love is faltering
But it won't in better times.

I was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mended whole was as good as new. What is broken is broken- and I'd rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived.

Wise words!! I'm hoping you'll stay in that better times mode, if not though, I can see you have the courage to go on

Great work

I'll tell you this...... No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn.....

Night Chica, this is wonderful poetry.
beautifully put to life.
Thank you.

Joel.

I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.
