Rings and Regrets
A poem about lost love
The memories of old
The memories of new
The memories you thought you had forgotten
He remains in your mind
He remains in your soul
But you're tied down now
With a man who wears you down
His smile stayed with you
Even after he left you
But what of the days you had
Where his hand was on your
Aching hearts pound
Aching hearts cry
All I can say about him is
He will never ever try
Again to rekindle our love
Even though I have a love
And even though he loves me
My heart still longs for the other
One to set me free
From the land that may as well be sea
The rocking and rolling of it all
Cements how I want you at all
Goodbye good old days
Where your hand would always lay
Where it probably shouldn't
In that class so long ago
Goodbye Goodbye
And hello rings on fingers
While I love my ring
I still love this man
What to do
Goodbye peace

Vocal & my relationship to publishing traditionally
Ever since my small writing beginnings, when I started writing on Vocal in February 2021, I had been in a truly terrible slump & funk when it came to my writing. I had so many unfinished projects, ideas, half finished manuscripts and first chapters that were going nowhere.
