Weekend Writer’s Retreat #1
Okay I’m digging into the archives for this week as I somehow haven’t managed to create anything new this week. I promise to try and do better next week.
Leaving You
We only want
What we cannot have
So the saying goes
And life goes on
Love passes by
Leaves you standing
On the edge of the road
Passions flare and fade
Friendships die away
I know it’s true
I know they do
But I never thought
With what we are and
What we are not
And all the things
I think I want
That it would be me
Leaving you this way
May ’94

I really loved this poem. It spoke to me of things I have experienced in the past.
Great poem. The last line really makes it.

I like this and it flows nicely..I’ve been resisting pulling out older poems but hey..not everyone’s seen them right?? Well, I’m trying to break through a block as well-
Hope you have a great weekend friend-
