I Tried

I tried. Truly I did in both laughter and the tears but looking back at all the lost years the images are vague and unclear; so easy to forget the joy and happiness when there is too much regret in the cloudiness. Taking hold of every memory dispersed not a thought remains rehearsed every step taken was me in its making and you the center of my world gathered up in my life swirls. Alone now in this terminal solitude my heart only remembers you with every breath I take loving you was never a mistake but losing you was my greatest heartache. I tried grateful for all the years we had wistful memories make this heart glad filled with the soul's endeavor to love expressed I hold dear the beauty shared as one forever blessed..
