Gone

When love is over it turns to rust Nothing can bring back the love when you lose your trust The rose coloured glasses become clear and bright You see what has been in plain sight Everything is all about you No matter what I say or do What you wanted I wanted to give That is really a terrible way to live I need to have my desires and needs met Which have to date not happened yet We need to share our hopes and dreams To make it as real as it some times seems But things are wrong , there is no hope So time to say goodbye and let go of the tight rope

Ah...dear Edith. This is truth that sometimes people don't want to see. You have captured the essence well. Truth can be painful and so some choose to keep looking through that lense. Hugs, dear one.

Not only does it turn to rust, it seems to decay rather quickly also. Really enjoyed the read. Peace my friend:)

But a truth that needs to be faced at some time in one's life. Thanks for the visit. Blessings Edith
