An empty void sits in love’s place now.
Your eyes, that once held the promise of shared dreams,
Now show nothing but a chilling blue haze.
It happened slowly, I think, so subtly,
I never even noticed,
Until now.
My heart sinks, both at the loss, and
Maybe more for your pain.
The one thing I ached for,
And dreamed of for so long,
Now within my grasp, is no longer my passion.
As I kiss you softly and turn to walk away,
Remember,
I will always hold you,
No longer in my arms, but
Forever
In my soul.

If You Write A Book, Don’t Tell Anyone
There are days when I’m grateful Amazon doesn’t tell me specifically who has bought my book and who hasn’t. If they did, I would be heartbroken when I read the list and noticed all the important names in my life were not on my list of customers.
