The Long and Winding Road......

Life is short, love endures.

The breeze carried lilac and basil and sage

but the garden was barren,

the cause of much rage.

 

I looked for the roses, the lilies and pinks

only to find a nudge

and several winks.

 

That canvas was empty and the palate was pale,

so that one couldn't find

the strength to prevail.

 

Such confused emotion is so hard to take,

little wonder then that

it led to a break.

 

But our life has a meaning, one we've both touched

far too precious to lose,

too dear to be ditched.

 

Perhaps it's time to revisit that feeling

to forgive and forget,

enjoy the healing.

Author's Note

[The long and winding road
That leads to your door
Will never disappear
I've seen that road before
It always leads me here
Lead me to you door]

This sounds like two who have had a relationship fall apart now realizing it was a huge mistake
