some days are better than others

By Adagios




Blessed


So far beyond any possible

fable



As weighless oceans of truth
Crashing on beleaguered shores
Bloody with the storms of “why” and
“How could you let her go”


These unfamiliar oceans are of

Sound

Reverberating all with the song



...Of forgiveness

    I can't help but relate to this one and my failed first marriage; after 8 years. High school sweethearts, a mismatched "perfect couple", but some things can't be forgiven and time does not heal all wounds. Cheers A. for this gem - Dan (we go on / it gets better)

    Easy to read, harder to comprehend. There's subtlety to the sadness and, I think, to the message. The center stanza gives the poem some much appreciated meat. Structure is great, word choice is great. Just another all around great poem, Adagios.
