May 2020
My failure complete
Now I weep
Intermittently
Throughout the day
I accept
She is through with me
Only internally
Though
The drops flow
On the surface
A face of stone  
Sinking below
Undertows
Still adrift
In the first
I let go
Where to go now
Is now
One more thing
I don’t know
An uncertainty
Future
Futile to resist
All because
By myself
I preferred to desist
My existence
Consistently  
Disappointments
Of disloyalty,
Distance,
Disingenuous
Dissonance
In discordant
Disguises amiss
In its thinking of you
As but showing you bliss
Was in fact for us even
A work in progress
And if nothing more comes of
The timeless expanse
We spent urging
The merging
Us into romance
I am glad to have seen you
As you would see me
I am honored beyond love
That I was once we
And I’ll never forget you
Regrets, mine alone
And still mold in your image
This earth
We call home
