New Life New Love
I wondered why you left that day.
I blinked to assuage the falling tears.
No spoken goodbye to ease my fears.
The sun setting as you walked away,
Your hair blowing with an easy sway.
You glanced at me with hateful leers.
What happened to us these past few years?
I knew it useless to ask you stay.
Awakening to a bright new start,
I swore to smile and begin anew.
Life worth more than desperate despair,
I encouraged my strengthening heart.
Thankful you’ve gone; my regrets are few.
New life, new love, answer to prayer.
