 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

broken


There was a time…
When the Seconds that slipped by could last forever…
Those moments together…
Looking, touching, waiting …
There was nothing that was better…
Our need to live forever…
But the clock has moved around…
And the Love that we found…
cried.
And in the loneliness…
died…
as life moved on.
And as each new daybreak shone into the
Darkness…
What we had, was past.
I had been cast...into the night…
With no weapons to fight...the sadness.
The bitter loneliness, that eats with joy…
my Soul…
The only thing that keeps me whole…
As I would wish to be…
With only love to See…
but I am
fading into gray…
as time ticks away
not having the strength to play…
my part…
for my heart is broken.
