I should have known better!

I should have known better!

A Poem by Rhine Wolf

The clouds drifted slowly aside.

Seemingly years after they arrived,

When it shut the sun out, leaving me cold

 

At first there was only a slither,

Letting in a ray of warm sun light

Slowly returning the warmth in me

 

As the days passed the light grew

The warmth started to settle in deep

As the sun touched my face, my smile returned

 

After a while all was as it was meant to be

You where here, by my side

Laughing, playing sharing my life

 

I should have known better

I should have seen it coming

I should have stopped her from ruining it all, again!

 

I should have known they just can’t get along

I should have seen they are just not compatible

I should have stopped her causing the pain in me!

 

I should have remembered it never lasted

I should have prepared my self of the inevitable

I should have begged the clouds to remain!

 

Quicker than they left, they returned, darker than before

Stealing the warmth out of my soul,

Ripping the light from my eyes.

Author's Note

Rhine Wolf
After so many years of being apart. It toke the passing of my Nana for my Mother and I to see each other again and try to put the past just where it belonged. The main reason why I wanted to reestablish contact was to gain access to my younger brother.

Well as you can tell it did not last long at all! And I am back to longing for my brother.

Wow there is so much sorrow in your words to be felt. It must be horrible to feel such pain from the woman that brought you into this world. I do not know what I would do in your position but I do hope that you get to be with your brother sooner rather than later.
