That Separate Road


My heart cried out in panic,

When you leave without adieu.

I waited in silence,

With misty eyes fixed on you.

 

I asked my heart why it raced,

And it groped for a sane response.

But the answer that came after

Were memories inside my mind

 

I asked my heart why it despaired,

But my query was ignored.

So in my thoughts came a request

To offer everything to the Lord

 

Hopeful, I waited patiently.

Singing songs for my frantic heart

With faith, I looked toward heaven

As I wish for a brand-new start.

Hey there! 🌟 High school me turned to writing short stories and poems for kicks, and it's been a love affair ever since. At present, I'm a special education teacher, guiding an amazing bunch of diverse kiddos. I channel my romantic soul into my poetry, often inspired by people close to me or just good old self-reflection. Love is my muse, I guess. I'd love for you to dive into my world of words and can't wait to experience your poetry too! Let's connect and get inspired together! 😊 Yey!
