Light of Pure Love

Soft memories of you fill my soul, yet the pain of regrets lingers Causing the softness to crack and shatter, falling through outstretched fingers One great love we are afforded in life, sitting I watch mine walk away Should have known past kisses, the tale your lips spun I’d pay Within a blue mist our story plays out, remembering deep emotions Shadows from our past then turn and twist, like the turbulent grey ocean A mixture of sweetness and chaos, yet the words never mattered Thought our love absolute, yet I had allowed my thoughts to flatter As questions linger, overcome by grief and their transgression Never excepting what was true, the deepest of all confessions If our paths were meant to be, then they will cross once again Then the toxicity of our past will fade, permitting the light of pure love in
