I Heard Today

I heard today you have a son Five months old The spitting image of you Born the day after I was Of all things in this world I can always appreciate the ironies of life And it didn’t make me miss you Or want to see you Or even want to talk to you Much I am happy where I am With who I am And most certainly with who I’m with What it did was make me sad For what we did to each other The wreckage we left in our wake The nuclear desert that was all that remained Once we were done with one another Because I blamed you for so much For so long Called the monsters in my head by your name Certain in my righteousness That you were where it all went wrong But looking at pictures of you with him I know that you aren’t evil And I was there by your side When we took each other down And today I take my share of blame In an effort to make the peace I never could While making it all your fault Because I know now That nobody is ever alone in battle And true serenity never comes Until you accept the weight of your own decisions ***Not a finished piece, any ideas??*** 8:17 PM 2 Comments(Add Comment) |0 KudosTranslate Edit Rem
