Closure
Broken dreams that needed mending,
Promises that lost their way,
Questions with no answers pending,
Silent words that had no say.
All are part of life’s delivery,
Recollections buried deep,
Time to move beyond the memory ...
Things to rid, and things to keep.
Captured are the moments tender,
Long before resentment grew,
Times of care and dreams of splendor,
Years before they ran askew.
Drawn to surface came the anguish,
Followed by the bitter truth,
Faced head-on and forced to banish,
That which carved a stolen youth.
Resurrection drawn through feelings,
Episodes and wronged events,
Analyzed in safe surroundings ...
No restraints and no pretence.
Lessons learned without derision,
Closure formed through past vignettes,
Satisfied with truth’s decision ...
No remorse ... and no regrets.
