"Beautiful "
Erstwhile Father
Beaten back by the delusions of others-
I find myself, lost in a fog of myself.
Hidden in open sight and unable
To find true north, hopelessly here, unfound.
Seeking understanding where time has
Served no purpose. Hindered by the stillness
Of night, hampered by the light of day.
To which time has not unhardened the heart.
Love scorned and nonplussed so easily, I can
Hardly believe my luck. Truth born, now unseen
Loses its power to hold back time. Time has lost
Its healing, and truth has lost its Erstwhile Father.

Thank you Thomas, sorry i've been out of touch lately. Life got in the way and left the dog days of spring for me. I'll be back soon and back to reading and writing.
