Good Bye'M.M.' Poem by Rick Elpers

With tattered heart weary
From the struggle
I give up

To win a heart for a time
To loose it so quickly
Wonders the soul

How can I ever know
When the shifting ground
Of what I perceive to be solid

Crumbles to pieces before
My very eyes
With no recourse

No decision on my part to
Assuage the trouble
Giving everything for nothing

So now I stand watching alone
The distance grow
Between us at the speed of light

I will suffer
Will she?
