Broken

I lament.
Guilt over
Promises made:
Love eternal,
Together forever.
Yet paths
Diverged,
No longer
Parallel.
Lovers
Became
Strangers.


I mourn.
Blissful bonds,
Tender moments
Overshadowed by
Hurt and pain.
What was
Once whole,
Now broken.
Numbness
Replaces
The once
Vibrant love.


I weep.
Such a shame
In this game
We call love.
Something beautiful
Is built,
Nurtured,
Cared for,
Then one fell swoop
Without regard
Completely destroyed.

Rebirth of Essence

What would it mean
to silence the mind
and think with the heart?

Worries disappear,
fear melts away,
troubles fall apart.

How would it feel
to move past the hurt
and experience the peace?

Wounds are healed,
faith is restored,
love finally blooms.

Who must we be
to overcome obstacles
and claim our glory?

Passionate and courageous,
powerful and present,
yet most importantly,
Authentic and free.
