A Beautiful Sadness

Slam poetry

By Adam Blankenship Published 5 years ago 1 min read

As the darkness falls on another day. His overactive mind running a marathon with his restless soul all while his heart is keeping the rhythm to the song of his sadness. He fights the thoughts of her as he closes his eyes. He buries all the emotions and all the love he still carries inside for her. He wants to reach out he wants to mend the broken ties between them. He wants to feel what he knows is still there. He wants to get lost in her presence and hold her close. Feel her warmth, kiss her lips and feel the connection that they share so deeply.

The reality is no longer that of what he imagines. For she has found her light. She has found the love that is meant for her. The love that he could not give, the love she needed to have for herself. So as he copes with the emptiness he now feels. It comforts him knowing that she is happy that she is free and that she has found the greatest gift of all. Herself.
