Cruel
Elegant heartache
Eyes blinkered by good times
Promises made now shaken
Future imperfect
Tense rules made to be broken
With a ring marital pledge
With a ring discarded
By diagnosis lost its shine
A text within a new context
Of singularity
Care free but cost too high
Snuffed out match of love
The most beautiful cruel
Blinked by good times excellent
Beautifully emotive Jon, thank you.
A moving piece of work. Carefully crafted. Well done.
Great Poetry Jon, as JD says., elegant and poignant, and pain past hopefully exorcised.
Both resonant and elegant, Jon. - I feel the pain.
