words echo art
Looking up
with tear filled eyes
at someone who
once meant the world
***
empty shallow shell
encasing the place
where a heart once lived
and love poured forth
drip
when did the sun
stop rising on our love?
drop
when did the words “I love you”
become too difficult to say
plop
What did I say “yes” to
so many moons ago
Sadly
there’s nothing left
to shed a tear over
walking by FAITH not sight

A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving. ~Lao Tzu
The world is best viewed through the ears of a horse.
A word a day challenge showcased from my vision. Words are a prize, ready to be lifted from the soul!
Tears water the soils of growth.

Tears come easily in a situation such as this. I have seen it others. I have felt it in myself. Truthfully written, Moon, which is why I like this.
