The weight of what could have been
holds me down; pressure to journey
into my past once again has me
linger to the edge of…reality?

Searching for the point origin,
where mistakes were made
What spiraled life out of control
when destiny took an unexpected turn

Certain no one feels the intensity of my pain,
imbedded deeply within my soul;
surfacing ever so slightly each day…
as my daily penance

Drifting into daydream moments,
visualizing life’s warm embrace
and spirited warmth encompassing
a heart, which has forever held love

Sadly dreams find closure,
hearts ache for loves touch,
and our minds continue, in search
of that one chance…to make it all right……..
