That Which Is Lost

Two sisters sit beguiled in common guilt;
all that is left.
That
and denials;
bitterness 
turned outwards;
inwards too painful.
Truth, a casualty
like lost children.
Love, just a word.

'All is Lost' is an apt summation of the profound truth you've penned here, Terry. Superior poesy, methinks. ~ Gershon

Thank you, Gershon, for your kind comment; trying to get back to writing; we have been moving house over the last several weeks, which has been stressful and time-consuming.
