Wistful Ride

Sombre thoughts blowing in the wind As what ifs echo through my mind Wishing goodbye was only so long Wondering what is the right way to be wrong? Silent canyons of the heart Seek solace in the depths of doubt Hope comes along for a wistful ride And I die a little inside Sacrificed my queen to win this game called love But she was two moves ahead Broken hearted pieces in a silent glide, As I die a little inside 2-9-19 I Died A Little Inside Contest.

"Wondering what is the right way to be wrong?" Perhaps the heart may never know the answer to this question. When love is given, yet not returned in the same way. It hurts. This is beautiful and sad, all at the same time. ~ Brandy
