Parting Words

by Ronda Hensley - Gemini

A heart left broken,
Love sought is lost,
Standing alone in the darkness,
With no moral value,
Life seems to be lost.
The visions played in my mind,
Were played by a fool.
How did I ever possibly think,
That your love was true.
My heart is no longer shared,
Just empty, lifeless, and impaired.
I always give and never receive, 
Any word of thanks seize to be.
I’m tired of playing this game of tag and tease,
My heart can simply take no more, 
It’s no longer up for lease.
Why do others want to break us apart,
It was because of them that our love was sought.
My mind is racing,
My train of thought lost.
My visions of us slowly turn into dust.
Confusion is all I see,
I thought we were forever supposed to be.
If I had one wish it would be,
To turn back the clock, 
And never unlock my heart,
Which was desperately seeking in misery.
Maybe then all the pain would have never been,
And we would still be friends.
If that happened one good thing would be never known,
All the times that our once known closeness was shown.
With this I give my parting words.
I shall say none to you,
Unless you say to me.
Think of me how you want,
Just before you talk about me in hatred lies, 
Just remember how things used to be.
Now acquaintance of mine,
Goodbye for all time.
