    Too Long

    Too long has it been without signs

    Once smooth face now showing lines.

    How much time has passed

    A glimmer seen at last.

    Engrossed in daily living

    Please be as you were once forgiving.

    Eyes open but nothing seen

    Forgotten how once it had been.

    But life dictates time to heal

    Remorse now is what to feel.

     

    Too long has it been eyes wide shut

    Lost faith wounded as a deep cut.

    Another chance to substantiate

    To feel the love and lose the hate.

    What was lost has always been around

    In every touch, sight, smell and sound.

    Thank you for curing the incurable

    Your love ever endurable.

    Once again, sight has been restored

    Once again you are adored.

    Lovely write. Enjoyed the rhythm and word choices. Haven't written in a while nice to see you back at it. T Lady

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
