Good-Bad Or Indifferent

Expressions of an emptiness clinging to a limb;
Lovers going places few have ever been.
Relationships reflected on, severed or now gone;
But the drummer never stops his beat and life it must go on.
    Listening to the quite sounds of a secret lesson sent;
    Insisting to remember times that some say came and went.
    Floating in the air one breaths lie words that marked the day;
    And I will always keep them fresh till I’m gone away.

Happy Friday, Leonard! Good Bad or indifferent" if persued might open a realm of possibilities. Still, in a subtle way you have touched each one. Perhaps closure arrives with resigned acceptance.? Great metaphoric reference with the usage of "the drummer....". Keep well and stay happy!! Love, Mikki
