When Its All Been Said and Done

There comes a point of no return What all’s been said and done Then you have to walk away And to step out in the sun If someone has grieved your soul And will not make amends You need to start the healing work Turn for comfort to your friends There comes a time when you realize That all he uttered were lies You were swept up in the tide Of passion you saw in his eyes There comes a time when you realize Your heart has been broken in two And none can dress up the wounds You must do that work for you Close the page of that book That brought you only pain Made you forget your true worth And made your tears fall like rain There will come a reckoning When all must give an account Of all the hurtful things they’ve done Be paid back in full amount So, don’t turn bitter and don’t you fret Just lock tight the door of your heart And look forward with renewed hope For there awaits a fresh new start.

It appears you are on a roll, another excellent poem! Don't lock the door to tightly, leave it open just a crack.

Very nice write Eileen. Even Dexy's Midnight Runners could not have described it any better.
