ENTRY
FAITHFUL-LIE
PROFILE LINK
By a hair
Can you lose something that you've never had?
Is that what this feeling is?
A possibility has been taken away from me,
dangled tantalisingly before my eyes
but it was not meant to be.
To have come so close and now find myself even further away is
demoralising at best.
What I want is something that I cannot have.
What I can have, I do not want.
To have longed for something for so long,
to have seen it on the horizon,
to consider it within reach and then to watch as it is washed out to sea...
It rankles me.
Although it is short sighted
and perhaps temporary grief has me blinded.
Although perhaps this problem is small,
right now it is all that I can see.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US!
