Coming To Terms With Reality
He disappeared without a word.
There was no writing on the wall
to let her know what to expect.
Was she naïve and blind to all!
Her expectations drowned in tears.
A thousand thoughts her mind assailed.
The world around her crumbled down
Was she to blame? Where had she failed?
Confused emotions left her nights
in disarray consumed with guilt.
The pain within was hard to bear;
felt like a sword plunged to the hilt.
She searched for answers but in vain
looked deep inside her crystal sphere
till her reflection laughed and said
she was a fool to persevere;
And in that instant she saw light,
elucidation from above.
The loss was his. She would move on.
He was not worthy of her love!
