You plunged into my life

and my emotions

will resonate forever.

Kisses melted any resistance

that feebly tried to

keep you at bay.

 

Trouble is,

you never really saw;

strength nor vulnerability,

but somehow you played

to my insecurities

 

But it was too late

to realize;

I was paddling

in shallow waters

and we never swam

to the depths

of beyond.

 

There's an ache

that will always

echo a thudding

within.

 

But there's one thing I know,

I'll not wither

because of you.

 

I've made an oath;

these tears will no longer

have control,

for from this

I have grown stronger

and I can see a light of  hope

with every day

that you are gone.
