Is it fair to say we both have had enough..
That what we went through in our past was rough..
We project our pain constantly at each other,
You used to be my friend as well as my lover..
Now we look at each other like strangers,
We both took a chance knowing the dangers..
The children can see exactly what's going on,
They loved being with you but now your gone..
The court cases are a waste of time..
I take comfort at night with my tequila and lime..
Love will not allow me to hate you,
As bad as it looks, it is true..
If it makes you happy leaving all of us,
Take the car we'll just take the train or bus..
Smiling and putting on a brave face,
Moments of us together, I just cannot erase..
If this is the price that I have to pay,
I'll let go..
There's nothing left to say.,

Welcome
I think some people are so busy trying to be happy, they can't see that they already are, their ego is blocking the view. very enjoyable read AlitaOpal. smile life is short~
any salt for that tequila? ww
I totally agree with you WW 😉 Life is filled with distractions and we tend to loose track of our paths.. Nevertheless life is a school and happiness IS a choice..
Dammit! Forgot the salt 😉 💐💐💐
Thanks for sharing ALITA and baring your heart. Parting is such sweet sorrow and I have had my share. Sometimes it takes a long time to escape from the "Tunnel of Lost love" but (so far) I always have. The structure of your poem is perfect and the subject a lovely blend of agony (lime) and ecstasy (tequila). Love poetry is very cathartic and this poem helped me to "come to terms" with all the girls I've Loved and Lost. I'm 33 maybe I should have married one of them ~ what do you think' ? Most Ladies I know are "ready" for Marriage at 23 but at that age most Men are still boys ! Loved the Faded Rose visual ~ perfecct. Yours BRIAN
Hi Brian,
I'm sorry it took so long in responding..
I've missed quite a few activities on here..
Relationships can take a dive even after years of climbing the mountain together..
I find that in any relationship, however many or however short/long the duration of it, it's part of rediscovering who you are..
The beauty of life is just 'Be-ing'
That's how I feel..
I hope all is well with you Brian..
Now about that stanza's I've missed out on..
~ smile 🌹
ALITA ~ Thanks for your encouraging and positive comment. You are are a lovely Young Lady and life has beautiful things in store for you ~ and the BEAUTY OF JUST BEING. I learn from all my experiences ~ positive & negative ~ and move on stronger. Power of Positive Thinking ! Prayers and every blessing for the future ~ more poems please ! Yours BRIAN Please check my latest poem COLORS OF AUTUMN ~ Thanks B
This poem is dedicated to a very dear friend/sister of mine.
Despite her situation she chooses to wear her smile everyday. She has shown me that no matter what happens, we still have choices and throughout all the extremities in life it's all growth..
Thank you for taking the time to read
