Difficult Hollylane!
This is my shorter version trying to use Gogyohka principles. It is difficult!

Before and after
Joy at finding love Wonder at the feeling Touching your soul, finding it open and receptive We were in the same place My head on your chest Listening to your heart beat Reading your thoughts, feelings, hopes, love and need for me in print Pouring out of you Hearing your ache for me Missing me Wanting me Saying you wanted to grow old with me Then I allowed myself to believe, really believe Loved you unconditionally Openly Totally Completely With my whole heart, soul & body Allowed myself to feel my need for you Now and always Shared that with you Shed tears Missed you so Still believed we were in the same place Only to find A minefield of words My hope and dreams for the future Now gone Still trying to understand How it became Before and after

Enough heartache and pain
Time for healing and forgiveness Honor the love that was Even though it is no more

I wrote this sometime last month but don't remember when exactly. Hopefully it's not too bad.
I can see you standing over there a reflection passing thousands of miles away a breath a pause eyes a gaze my way but you can't see me loneliness that's like fingernails down a blackboard I see you a shimmer a breath on my neck I want to plunge my hands into your skin to drown in the scent of you like the softest cotton teeshirt that you've had for years my hands on your back I feel like a cat in heat from you that you for me fill me
