Blank Page

I am left on a blank page
My life put on hold 
So many questions about direction
and which way I should go

I look forward to the next chapter
In this book that I call life
But I can't seem to grasp the feeling
Of not being his loving wife 

I look for a new author 
In the eyes of a stranger
But my heart cringes in my chest
In fear of the danger

Not in fear of growing to love 
Someone or something new
But in fear of losing sight 
Of the promise already in my view

My story already had an ending
With my love right by my side
But he wanted to be free of me 
He was done, He didn't even try 

So as I stand here lost
Trying to find my way
I am right where he left me 
Standing left on a Blank Page

What better for a poet that a blank page to fill? Lucky you! Aloha! Rico
