Poetry
Maybe if I’d tried harder,
run faster, held tighter,
I could have kept you.
Maybe if I’d found a way
to pierce through your steel resolve
and expose your reasons,
I could have held on.
Maybe my immediate needs
exceeded yours
and I should have extended
my self-imposed time line;
I’ll never know.
Maybe my dreams of gauze
were too fragile
to withstand the brutal winds
of your discontent
and disappointment;
I can’t be sure.
I only know I tried
and cried;
but ultimately
I failed.

Thank you so much for your comment on, 'The Signal at the Corner'. Now I am getting tears because it is so Godly precious to "connect with you", dear writer and daughter of the King, that YOU are!" I love it that our living Lord has so many way to give us all "a signal".
I dearly love your talent in expressing, and look forward to knowing you through your work. Have an extra special day today!! Love in Jesus, Jacque
Love, Jacque
