Rewritten

Undone

By Kelli Sheckler-AmsdenPublished about a year ago 1 min read

Can we pretend it never happened

Make believe that we’re ok

Admit it’s not what we imagined

Another world another day

Taking a walk through all the memories

Letting them all just fall away

Some with struggle, some go gently

Each one carving out their name

We’re captive to the pain around us

Feed it till the world stops

A false sense of impending justice

Surviving as the next shoe drops

The last sand in the hourglass

Sifting through, biding our time

A witness to the moments passing

Clinging to love like simple rhyme

Each longing for that special something

The unwavering flame of love’s embrace

Leaving us waiting, hopelessly wanting

To be tangled with love, face to face
