Letting go... too late...

As tears fall from green eyes…
She knows she has to let go
Its too hard to love anymore
As ache surrounds her
She struggles with loneliness
She hoped she would never feel again
It seeps into her soul
As she looks into his eyes
Vagueness covers love
With shaking hands she reaches
To her face
Brushing away the pieces of her heart
One sided love is never enough
Emptiness as everything slips away
He will never be true
She closed her ears and opened her heart…
Soul mate (perhaps)?
He spoke with words well rehearsed
They fell like drops of wine…
Thirsting, longing she tasted the tangled verse
Into her veins, warming, quenching
She consumed too much… too late…
Her heart bleeding
Her soul cries
The thirst begins
Cold creeps in
Gazing at the empty carafe of love
She reaches out… too late…
Tears fall from green eyes… dlw
