Turning dust into mud with my tears I bowed to the ground covering my ears I cried unto the wind to announce my sin I have hurt a beautiful woman whom I loved so dear. Yet she lived too far I will always keep her near. Nevertheless there are others out there who perhaps need a tear to clear. The eyes of a heart can see beyond the fears I know not how to love nor know when to embrace or to let go. All I feel is the pain I have caused to all that loved me so dear. Many will say change your ways stupid fool stop whatever you are doing that causes those you care about to lose their cool I know not how anymore I know not how much I can endure. I am lost for sure. They say surrender is the cure. What must I do what must I say or think and act or feel a better way? When will I learn to stop pushing love away no matter how great or small or quality of measure to consider the treasure of a woman is everything I hold so dear.

About this poem:
I wrote this on behalf of a friend who I recently and foolishly told her things I am now regretting. Who among us is without flaw?
