LOOKING FOR AN ENDING

LOOKING FOR AN ENDING

A Poem by Phil Roberts

I am accompanied by ghosts
Haunted by broken hearts
And useless regrets
Loss of the living is almost worse
Than the loss of life
But it happens
And now
Without the optimism and hope of love
Life tires of me and I of it
Ah, but alas
I cannot die
Because heaven will not take me
And daddy says I can never go back home
Ha !

Deep yet simple.... "Without the optimism and hope of love" there is nothing to life and the future appears bleak but yet we cannot leave "for heaven will not take me
And daddy says I can never go back home"

Lovely...
