My desire
isn’t to see
you again,
nor to touch
your face
as my lips
meet yours
(a longing
from
yesterday)
instead,
I must do
what is right
for you and me…
let go of
futile dreams

You’ve captured the bittersweetness beautifully.
Thanks so much, Jean! I hope you’ve had a great weekend!
“I must do what’s right for you and me…”💞💜💞
That’s always the best move, even though it might be difficult, right? 🙂 Thanks, Ericka! ♥
That applies in so many areas of life. Thanks for highlighting the need to pack up and move on when disappointments arise.
Thanks for your awesome comment, Ian. The hard part is discerning when it is time to pack up and move on, instead of holding onto hope that things will go in the direction we want. 🙂
Moving on is never easy. Beautiful poem, Lauren. Hugs
No, it isn’t, is it? 🙂 Thanks so much, Michelle, and thanks for tweeting, too! I’m not on twitter, so I have no idea how that works. But I appreciate you sharing my poem. Hugs back for a Happy Monday!
And then go get something chocolaty!
Sounds like a plan, Binky!
A conflict between sentiments and reason,a step forward to have a clear conscience,but the dream will never die.Do we really live the life we desire?If only we were a bit more on the trepid side … Wonderful your poetic expression,dear Lauren!Sending love & kisses your way 🙂 ❤ xxx
Your comment is thought provoking, too, Doda, and thank you for always making me smile when you stop by! Sending lots of love your way, my dear friend. ♥ xo

Useless memories wasted on a time when love was real.
Your words always strike in the memories of my heart Lauren.
Aww, thanks so much, Ian…poetry is born by many of those memories, good or bad…I wish you a wonderful start to your week, my friend…
