A Difficult Journey, by Dan Barnes

A Difficult Journey

To Bre

Today I start a difficult journey to let go.

 Let go of a woman I love from deep in my soul.

 It hurts from within a pain unlike before. 

I wanted her to love me to want me more.

 I waited for the day for her to decide. 

But it never happened and so I cried. 

The hardest thing I had to say. 

This game of three way I can no longer play.

 I hoped she would hold me and tell me what I needed to hear.

 But she said nothing, giving fruition to my fear.

 I will dream about her and reminisce.

 Her scent, her smile, her company I really will miss.

(2014)
