Try Again? Poem by Priti Pauline

This relationship has come to an end
No more twisting, turning trying to bend
There's nothing more to defend
Broken, shattered into pieces, too much to mend

All these years
Not facing this fear
Escalating trauma
A soap opera drama
Is this what they call Karma?

Screaming and shouting has all been done?
There isn't really any more fun!
The game has lost its goal
Inside this marriage mould.

There's so much between us but nothing can console
The cries of my beleaguered and wounded soul

My sorrow is immense
The unbridgeable gap of this emotional fence
Surrounded by fog so dense
One step at a time to find our way clear
To the friend who once was so dear
Nothing can stop this unborn tear

Goodbye my love
From this heartache bestowed from above
Bring us peace on the wings of a dove
Restore us with faith, beauty and love

And in the cold light of day
The sun will still shine and she will have her say! !
Tomorrow is another Day….

When trying to say good-bye
I was suffocated by a terrible lie

Lets end it all……….
I had to stumble and fall
And watch the dismembering of an egoic pride
That which could no longer run and hide.

And in my sorrow
I find there IS room for tomorrow!
And In the depths of pain
Could we could still try again?

Gamblers mentality
Is this the reality?
Or the capacity to change
To live and rearrange
What's important in life
Is not tittle tattle, gossip and strife
But the love and affection
Of a deep and abiding connection.

I thought I'd lost my friend
It was all to end
Who's pride wouldn't bend?
Is there a chance we could mend?

The desperate cries to be heard
Are now the word
And the key to tomorrow
To drown out our sorrow.
