Having regrets
makes the road forward impossible to walk
the mountain ever so high above the clouds
impossible to climb
acceptance is knowing that what has been my burden
can now be blown away with the wind of change
laid to rest in a quiet place
under the wild roses
letting go of what was
looking forward to what will be
“We are all capable”
forgiveness, to myself and to others
aware of what has been, knowing that it’s too late
to turn back that deceitful clock that tricks us all
unable to travel back in time
to the moment before it all changed forever
I’m ever strengthening my mind to just let it all go
mourning those very moments
for the last time
Saying goodbye with a gentle kiss
In the grand hope
I will someday
be able to truly love again.

Beautifully penned poem Teddy. Regrets are painful, acceptance the first step on the pathway to healing. Letting go can eventually be a sweet release. Easy to say, far harder to do.
Thank you so much dear Cassie58, my very favourite subject and something I myself have questioned for.most of my life. 🤗 Never easy and never straightforward simply because it's love.
A powerful poem, Teddy, wonderfully written.
Thank you so much dear Tom. 🤗
You've no idea just how much I can relate to your beautiful poem. And yes, acceptance of the reality of what is instead of what you've wanted is the hardest pill to swallow. But I know, if anyone can reinvent themselves, it's you Teddy. The biggest of hugs 🫂 to you my dear poetess.
I did indeed reinvent myself dearest A.P as can we all, it takes courage and self belief determination and a lot of effort, thank you so much my dear friend. 🤗
Simply beautiful, the perfect touch of transparency and vulnerability. Fantastic work.
Thank you dear Thomas, I so appreciate your kind words sir. 🤗
Forget the bad things in the past Teddy and just remember the good things as you move on into that new love that is there for you.
Andy
Thank you dear Andy. 🤗
How come I almost missed this ..
Quite literally, a literary stroke of pure genius ma'am T .. Neville
Awe dear Nev, thank you my dear friend. 💜
Sad but hopeful words containing the wisdom we all need in a world of loss. To let go and be able to forgive oneself then others is one of the most difficult steps in climbing that "mountain ever so high above the clouds". A most beautiful message set in tender words.
My dear Sorenbarret thank you with all my heart. 🌹
