Phase-L
The month ended with dark shades of light.
A special day established the official end
of someone and something to lose.
Yet distant horizons came into sight.
A season began with new endeavors.
Marking the days that reached a year
and every new responsibility.
Gone were the hopeless forever’s.
Passages of a new and cooler mass.
Fresh breezes to usher in the days
while nights were shifting to red.
A chance like that may quickly pass.
The night brought anxiety and life.
Excitement from the discovery
and hopes of the times to come.
The leaf had parted by the knife.
Sorrow would be set aside, forgotten.
The cold and empty nights exited
while comforting warmth crept in.
Wandering away, a field of cotton.
Hopes and dreams developed fast.
All plates had shifted into place
and love swept away the loneliness.
Ignoring what lingered from the past.
Pushing towards a bed of roses.
White shades of complete perfection
blinded most darkening skies.
A story begins as another closes.
Planning a future with it in mind.
The connection brought unity
so no differences could spark a flame.
Memories of a most special kind.
Moving in was the transition.
The end of one, beginning for both,
while the story was pressing on.
Standing firm with the position.
Falling into place, all things grew.
Time could not be an obstacle
when nights were always together.
Perfection that nobody knew.
A climax that reached beyond the shore.
Endless depths that could not stop,
signaled a life-long goal accomplished.
Growing tired or did they still adore?
Seasons fade and new beginnings start.
Would this help occupy the time
or just add excessive stress?
Diving away and slowly falling apart.
Days grew longer, nights without end.
New faces would enter the picture
and work to break apart the bond.
Far too infrequent, the times to spend.
Bits and pieces ate away the whole.
Tiny spots of darkness enter sight,
especially when one can magnify.
For the first time, tearing apart the soul.
The late night words spoke disaster.
One mind could not handle the pain,
while the other one slept away.
Events could not be any faster.
In an instant he crossed the line.
A barrier left undetermined
would never be granted second chance.
Nothing was okay, nothing was fine.
Black and white, to stay or forever leave.
The options were limited
and neither choice easy to swallow.
A crash that not a soul could believe.
Mixing depths lead clouds to pour.
Raining down like shards of glass
the needles slice and spill open.
The thoughts one can never ignore.
The rest is gone, time to move forward.
Love is remembered, not forgotten,
or at least this is the reality.
All things passed, which already occurred.
A healing fix will comes with time.
Perhaps what seemed like perfection
was something that unfolded too fast.
Freezing panes covered in rime.
What had seemed so very long?
Passing months, yet not quite a year,
the story was suddenly forced shut.
Hearts and souls must remain strong.
Patience leads to extraordinary hope.
One must fight for an entire life
and not let others pull them down.
Together in spirit we currently cope.
Divided they stand, distanced apart.
Lingers the past that brought smiles
and far too many tears as well.
Cutting down the center of her heart.
The present times are swiftly flowing.
Rivers force the waves to incline
leading to oceans against the horizon.
Yet, still, destiny remains glowing.
