GOODBYE LOVER, HELLO STRANGER *

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 37

there are holes in this moment
and perhaps I am not the best
choice for the job of patching
up such injured shards
the ache it seems suffuses
not just one but two hearts
his distance could speak to me two ways
of his heart's place I have made two
separate forays
has he given up the dream of us
or has he merely given me the time
for which I asked
I've reached out from deep within
attempting to more firmly attach
that amazing connection I have with him
but so far, to no avail
what was once so successful
has begun to sputter and fail
left to meander my hinted hallways of
heartache alone
I stumble into the painful cold walls
feeling more and more forgotten
by a man who claimed his heart
was mine from that first moment one
more sadly it seems
it was
'Goodbye Lover, Hello Stranger'..................
