We Are No More

Watching you walk away Leaving me standing alone I reflect back to yesterday. You said you want to be on your own We were once inseparable Like two peas in a pod, we were Our love was once undeniable But you threw it away to be with her. Once we'd walk in the moonlight Watching it shine on the sea. While illuminating our night. Now it's your silhouette that I see. Your love is now dark and cold What was once warm and nice It was both strong and bold But it came with the ultimate price. Loving you was all I wanted to do Giving you all I have in me But my heart is broken in two I'm no longer who I used to be.

We are never static, but always changing, growing, transforming. Every experience in life alters who we are. Nice poem, good flow, easy read.

This reminds me of our opioid crisis and how people fell in its trap after a period of depression. Miss hearing from you. Jim Horn
