Awakening Callously, you reduced me to tears Making me face unfathomable fears Forcing me then, to carry on Wondering what, became of our bond Thinking all along, that we were perfectly secure It’s then, that you departed, leaving sorrow for me to endure So, you went on living, without a backwards glance Causing me to remain, in a steady somber trance Then, one day I woke up, suddenly feeling new Free of all the melancholy, that was caused by you Relieved to be unburdened, of all that extra weight Now, looking back on everything, I see you weren’t so great!

Although this deals with a hurtful situation, the ending indicates freedom, validation and thus is very encouraging and uplifting. Thank you for sharing, May. Love and best wishes,

this is great...havent we all had 'awakenings' to the not-so-great people/happenings that at one time we thought were imeasurable treasures?....

is 'imeasureable' a word? or does the spelling just look all caflooey? we ALL know that 'caflooey' is a word don't we? :)

it is such an awesome feeling when we embrace ourself
and the importance of our own path
it takes 2 people to be in any relationship
& only one to end it for any reason they so choose
and in this it is a grand feeling to let go of ole baggage
no matter what the weight may be
I am so glad you are free from the "somber trance" <---Love That!
Peace & Continued Happiness!!

Visions of A Skylark Dressed in Black by Aberjhani

�The woman or man who is a poet, or fiction writer, or playwright, or all of these, is engaged constantly in a jazz ballet of vocabularies, passions, genders, histories, perspectives, death, love, and life. The music of revelation announces itself to
