I don’t know what to say
Since an apology is irrelevant.
They way forward seem shrouded with animosity and regret.
But I know I love you.
Unfortunately love does not overcome everything
Despite what people say.
Sometimes hurt and animosity smothers love,
it rests comatose somewhere in a white germ-infested state,
where it lies dormant kept alive with life support.
All it needs is for someone to flick the switch
Through the years, our kids, our home was that life support,
and I know once that is gone, the power will fail
With no backup generator and no hope for life
It’s no secret, that love is running out of time
Each labored breath, drawing love closer
to an eternal grave, cold and lifeless

As talent drained from every inch of my mind
I found reading other's work only made me jealous
                   I started to feel unpopular
          Not enough ideas left to create anything at all. Not a single drop of inspiration.

      As all of theses emotions and realizations mixed together

I became okay with copying your work.

       I can imagine you slaving in the dark
Racking your brain to find the perfect words to finish the last line

       Lucky for me I have it all right here, completed and ready to post
     Finished and polished and prepackaged with a message I didn't think of but everyone will commend me for.




    *I hope you enjoy it.
