Awayness.

 

 

Awayness.

Time-racked love sickens yet clings to need's favour.

Truck rumbled awayness by distancing rails.

Hope blurs in acceptance thru smoke-blinded eyes.

Will healing wing free from his hurtful goodbyes ?

 

Long-held faith reflects back to hurt's parting words.

Heart wavered at train wheels speeding him further.

Come nightfall I ask why, with no-one around

Waiting's old echo still whistles lone track sounds.

Pleasured to hear you say that my friend.... double stanza sonnets have always read sadly to my mind and I wanted to get that poignant feeling into the lines of Awayness -- seeing your thoughts on the piece has made my evening - and true........ Fay
