PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

all we have are words

and now those too are fading

how so very painful such realization is

I have no real recourse here

such path behind me is all too fast erasing

grief so deep like  a gutted thing

rots steadily away at my once

so beautiful memories

you approach me less and less

more distant than before

a shell of a once such lovely shading

I can not make amends with mere

sporadic guess

freedom is just another word

but its blade is sharp and so so cold

likely another stands in the wings

one of many of my understudies all promoted

I am an old laugh less joke now

looking for her cue to walk off the stage

done but defeated............
