Letter to a Stoic Heartbreak

For you, one last time

The sigh is the ellipsis
of one uncertain mind
The memory of lips,
of those red and kind
 
Cry, cry the why
Smile, smile the when
 
Deep in soft covers,
crying for the lost
Once life settled the dust,
remember the lovers
 
Cry, cry her rivers
Smile, smile your past
 
Rise to the voice
of a greater calling
Stoic against
any falling
 
Cried, cried for her
Smiling for them
 
Know your worth
Learn your strength
Keep your heart
And go on instead
 
To the wild, and off to the land
Of tomorrow,
with one stoic mind
 
And cried, for her
Cried for love
And smiled, smiled for her
Smiled for the love
 
For the love,
For the love
