💚

By Colleen WaltersPublished 4 days ago Updated 3 days ago 1 min read

Resigned myself to the fact

that was, won't be

a bright flash that burned

a one-of-kind-connection

you weren't ready

to receive

my offering of fullness

like a rare diamond once

there is no other like me

what was written

is now just a grand illusion

that captivated my

everything

a once-in-a-lifetime

forever

discovered

then covered

" if only"

wishful thinking

a pipe dream with

no pipe

something unworldly

and special

once

and so I go

back

into the mist.
