Poets Pantry - Poets United - - - For The Weekend


 


 A Love Song

don't hold on
to dreams made of froth
you can't make him love you
it's just not enough

walk away quietly
find someone who cares
someone to hold you
someone not shared

that faraway thought
cannot keep you warm
or give you sweet comfort
in life's blizzards or  storms

so bury your hurt in a shawl
of white jonquils
wipe away those  tears
the sun will shine tomorrow

    Oh if sleep could heal, if there where others... But many don't work that way... Alas - so sad in a way.. Love the cadence here.

    Lovely. And, as Bjorn said, also a bit sad. I'll hold onto the hope of sunshine, though. <3
