At certain times we have to move on.


as past flames rekindle

`

Once, so many years ago,
now a distant place and clime;
moments of thought and life shared,
each moved in perfect time.

Words in unison, hearts pulsed;
so intimate, each gesture,
each expression fears repulsed;
companions of great measure.

Now it seems we're worlds apart;
nothing more in common share.
The last desired thing to start,
fray last threads beyond repair.

Tomorrow bears no sunrise
with correspondent promise;
about oneself realise
quite the monster: surmise.

To let bygones be bygone,
this callow heart has not learnt;
perhaps hope had wily drawn
from past flames this quill has burnt.

How beautiful and sad. I think we are all inexperienced and unknowing when it comes to letting things go. Very nice work.
