Happy Ending

Happy Ending

A Poem by John Alexander McFadyen

Happy Ending

I remember those sad summers,

laying bare upon the grass,

where passion once had lived

in sweeping, gliding flights

above the sky.

But only sadness left its mark,

soiled fingers on white satin skin

as salty memories seeped

into the wounds you left behind,

and pain was all I had to hold.

I tried so hard to flush out

your pretty poison

of lies and deceit

with the purity of hope’s crystal waters

drawn deep from long dried wells

of arid gritty dreams.

But they had caked salt hard

and only the depth of Karina’s love

could break that spell.
