Twelve Months Broken-Hearted

Twelve months later I’m struggling for a motivator To get me up in the morning My life at present is stagnant and boring Mixed feelings about my ex-wife Am I missing her from my life? Yes I’ve dated many people But none have reached the height of her steeple I miss the companionship I’m on constant guilt trip I think about her every day When I see her it makes my day How can I move on from this abyss? Of desolate lands which the world will dismiss A black hole in darkness of space Reminds of the taste of overcooked mace Do I continue this lie? And keep looking through my glass eye Or do I try and be strong Identify where things went wrong I need to sort out my life Perhaps even have a chat to the ex-wife Is the marriage salvageable or is this a blind spot Or shall I just un-tie our love knot Crying is not the answer I need to eradicate this cancer That consumes my world at present Life is not a television segment Created:-13/10/17 Finished 3rd place in Broken Hearted Poems competition Contest sponsor:- Broken Wings Contest Name:- Broken Hearted Poems
