Abandoned
“If the heart could speak…would it shed tears of mourning for the scarring of the soul? Dragging steal across bone, carving in “I’m not enough…”

Like a breath gently whispered on a frosty pane
Leaving a mark, a touch of your name
Though you may have not heard the subtle whisper
I know it was you
A footprint left in the sand
only to be faded without a trace
By the violent shores come to call
Still I feel your grace
Like the softest touch upon my cheek
‘tis without words to me you speak
A race through time
to the ends of the Earth
following the trails of your ghost
With an ache in the soul,
a lingering desire of the heart
Wounds from which I cannot part
Yet pushing me on, they do
to the memory that is you
A bond that is ne’er to be broken
There is nothing more painful than love lost.
Loss comes in all forms – loved ones passed, torn relationships, friends that break away. The closer to the heart, the deeper the wound and amount of time it takes to pick up the pieces and forge forward.
Yet some wounds run too deep for the echoes of time to ever be able to compensate. These are the wounds that stem from the loss of a key relationship. You are forever longing for one more moment, one more laugh, hug – one moment to tell them how much they mean to you. The only place of solace for the loss of such a key relationship is in the canvas of your memories and imagination.
Those we love never truly leave, but forever have a home within our hearts and minds.
“If the heart could speak…would it shed tears of mourning for the scarring of the soul? Dragging steal across bone, carving in “I’m not enough…”
“What flows into song cannot be unsung, the motion of the world long moved undone…” Within each note is a chain to something far beyond ourselves, calling us home.
“All that we are bound into flesh and bone” Love transcends all, an echo transversing the cosmos, intertwining two hearts, two fates for all of time.
