From Anywhere But Here

From Anywhere But Here

A Poem by Alisa Js

Tell me again of your love and devotion
you promised me forever,
and to never let go

Haven't we learned anything
after all these dried tears?
How do those dark clouds
still manage to pound,
while thunder and lightning mock
what we thought was smooth sailing,
We're back in the dark
and can't find our way out

What do those memories know
the ones that won't go?
No matter how hard we push and pry

I miss 'us'
the laughter and secrets shared,
summer nights, forever
gone, with the last, long good-bye

Now me, in my lonesome
and you, in your world
where nothing is right, 
And words that mean nothing
and nothing remains...

Powerful, honest and direct words.
"Now me, in my lonesome
and you, in your world
where nothing is right,
And words that mean nothing
and nothing remains..."
Love does find dead ends. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

~~ i think this is an overwhelming piece about how we see certain facets of love and then they nearly vanish into thin air...
