Broken Roads

Summary

Life is poetry in motion. We travel through hills and valleys in search of peace, prosperity, happiness, acceptance and most of all… love. Life doesn’t always turn out the way we thought it would be, but it always is as it should be. Every choice turns us down a different road. All roads, eventually lead us home.

Chapter 1

catalyst ….

I thought.

Powerful words.

Brought me to my knees.

Tear stained soul.

Best not to think.

It is better to know.

Love isn’t what you say.

It is in what you do.

It was the web of lies.

That brought me here,

To you.

I woke to the truth.

Many years ago.

Tried to find the way.

My chosen road.

My way home.

You simply didn’t want to go.

So I travel.

Alone….

The thoughts that leave us vulnerable, also set us free. Setting off on the road of discovery. Molding us into beautifully unique creations.

It started with his promise, but it ended with her own. Little did he know, her promise to herself would change his world too.We can’t chose life’s plan for us, but we can choose the path. These two statements sum up her life in two short and sweet whispers.There is no beating around the bush when love goes wrong. There is only picking up the pieces and moving on.



*This is my first attempt at publicly sharing my works. I don’t know which direction this will go, for I am still upon a broken road.*


When I promised,

I will,

When I said,

I do,

I did.

You didn’t.

I reconciled,

Accepted,

Let go.

It is only forever when two hearts agree….

Not a concept,

But a reality.

This life;

Not at all how we wish it to be,

But all is how it should be.

Dreams that become reality often turn into nightmares.

Looks can be deceiving.

You say, “you looked at me with bedroom eyes.”

I’m just tired, my reply.

“Your eyes say kiss me”,

The moment to which you’re referring, I was thinking you were crazy for the things you say.

“I see the desire in your eyes”,

What you see is fear, because you do not hear.

Looks can be deceiving.

Don’t believe all that you think you see.

Pain and fear often confused with pleasure and desire.

Take a close up of a woman in labor,

Now a close up of a woman in the throws of passion. The facial expressions are the same.

Looks can be deceiving.



Had he known what love wasn’t, he would have known what love was. She tried to show him, tried to show him her heart. The world sees love differently. Two worlds set apart.

Every breeze carries thoughts of you.

The fragrance of forever envelops, as a lovers embrace.

The light dances upon the water, reflecting loves light in my eyes.

Left with images of love’s desire, whenever I close my eyes.

Mountains of green…

Turned crimson and gold…

Mist rising…

Dawns growing light…
