Broken Relationships
Pictures there upon the wall, each person once held me dear.
At times we were living together, now not one lives near.
Each has a life they must live and thoughts on which to ponder.
My life goes on, I grow old and still I can’t but wonder,
How different things could have been, if love we didn’t squander.
It’s sad to know the errors I’ve made, the times my choices were wrong,
The love I’ve felt but couldn’t show, for I had waited too long.
The times I couldn’t be where they wanted me to be,
The pain and suffering they couldn’t see,
They didn’t know the authentic me.
I wish them all, love, peace, and joy, in the lives that they are living,
And hope someday they’ll learn to forgive as they have been forgiven.
I hope they’ll know in their heart of hearts and deep within their soul,
How much I love and pray for them, as all of us grow old.
None of us, in this earthly world; can know the other’s true story.
