No regrets

The shadow of your past lingers on
Like a soft petal of a rose
Frozen in your memory
Alas she found you, called out
And those frozen moments of time come alive

Unfurled, like a dream that shook you
In the wake of dawn
And like a dew that moistened the ground, her lips aching for you to drench,
Harvest it's glorious sweetness only you can, ,,trigger that pleasure she sorely miss in your absence.

Oblivion took reign of your existence
For a while nothing exists between you and her
And why not, she only left you temporarily
She told you, once her wings are full of silver and gold,
Like an eagle she will fly back to you
She promised

Now her future filled with the security of
What money can buy, alas she's back
If only to taste you one more time.

Perhaps even for a lifetime.

Don't worry about me, I surely understand.
I just knew it is just a matter of moments.

And so it is. I'm free and that's all that matters.

Good luck.

And yes, I have no regrets.

I can only thank you for the memories.

Good write.

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin', don't mean nothin' hon' if it ain't free, no no
And, feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues
You know, feelin' good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGhee - Joplin

Lindsay beautifully written ~ the sting of finding out somebody has been lying to you behind your back or withholding the truth [same thing]. We open up like a flower, in full bloom only to be kicked emotionally and that takes a strength and also forgiveness to get over.

I hope things work out for you. Wonderful writing.thumbs up

Right inna back! That's where your most trusted get you.
Oh well at least you didnt marry the turkey. Because if you had, he'd be using the law against you he can think of, and his friends could think of, depending on who his friends iz.

Looking forward will take you on to newer and maybe better memories! The past is always just that...."the past".....so why do so many live there as they repeat and relive it?
The promise of better things to be is where we must live......you are on your way there now....follow the path!
Wishing you well.happy place
