Once in a blue moon
he would imagine
unscathed
a wish
too often sweet departure,
and this
once in a lifetime,
we are chosen to decide
is it passion,
is it desire,
is it lacking
every aspect of what we might believe
is true
is part of who we might be,
when suddenly we do realize
happiness is afraudulent
circumstance.
Rest your laurels on what is real,
she did far more for my heart
than she might have ever imagined,
now today, there is a freedom,
to know
beyond my world
it is she
elusive and lovely
real.
