A Center that Isn't There

By BetaWolfinVA

a center that isn't there
circling circling
drifting around
a center that isn't there
.
slowly finding that i just dare not care
painful dreams drifting through my mind
where would i be if i hadn't
married whom i did
.
why am I so alone
why did i do this to my self
why didn't i just wait
to hold you in my arms again?
.
and now, again, to try to face loosing you
but i am loath to hurt her
but do I matter
or matter not
.
good bye
for now
my love
farewell

    Absolutely awesome writing from the heart, or what's left of it. Excellent. Later -
