Wrapped in silence
Lacking words to
utter
No song to sing
Such closeness you
once shared
Time overtook you
Memories flee from
you
Left you sipping
from the bitter glass
Yesterday the
history of today
Today will never
birth a future promising
For you have become
distanced by emotions
Singing praise to
misunderstanding
Paying homage to
loss
You now are divided
By words once said
Words piercing
Words irreversible
Apologies too proud
to leave the lips
Remains of pride
blocking opportunities
Paths leading to
hopeful amendments have become the joke of the day
For you have been
divided by emotions
Submerged in pride
Guilty of words
uttered
Wounds licked open
Forgiveness paid the for pride
