This pain in my heart is killing me, <br />slowly every day; <br />how does one say goodbye to her husband, <br />and simply walk away? <br /> <br />The scattered pieces of my life, are <br />laying everywhere; <br />how do I begin to pick them up, and <br />salvage whatever is there? <br /> <br />Fifteen years of my life I gave to him, <br />now it's blowing away like dust; <br />the wind that carries them through <br />the air, is most befittingly named <br />mistrust. <br /> <br />Those years were never good to me, <br />yet I cherished my marriage so; <br />and my pain seems to be taunting me, <br />when I hear the strong winds blow. <br /> <br />How do I go on living, where do I go <br />from here; <br />why can't I simply give up, and wipe <br />away me tears? <br /> <br />Devastation I am consumed with, it <br />burns through my very soul; <br />I don't know how to quench the fire, <br />or learn to simply let go. <br /> <br />I know I have a future, yet it <br />doesn't ease this pain; <br />that fills my aching heart, <br />throughout my every day.<br /><br />Ruth warren<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/where-do-i-go-from-here-3/
