The wind and storms have ended for today,
And evening slips unthreatening up to me.
A salty tear reveals my deep dismay,
Impeding my ability to see.
I don’t know what to say or what to do;
Most times this world’s not painted black or white.
My intention is: tell you what is true,
Ask forgiveness, and step into God’s light.
You may have been happy, I’ll never know,
I never asked you or wanted to hear.
I made my decision, alone and slow,
Closing my eyes when I looked in the mirror.
I wanted what’s best for me, no one else.
Goodbye what could have been, love never felt.
