was when…..
she forgot her kith and kin
she forgot all she believed in
all she remembered was impossible love
her need to make him see the heavens above.
****
her time , her life, her duties, her promises
her responsibilities all could burn to ashes
all she cared was for the deep happy voice
the chuckle in his throat was now her choice
****
the garden of love bloomed fierce and fragrant
no sacrifice was too big, no step too significant
the cobwebs ,the ghosts all brushed away, he said
you are my sunshine, my only true love, he said
****
basking in the love, she happily gave her all and more
he was hers, he said, no one now mattered any more
living a dream , she got carried on a stream
till the pain kicked in and she began to scream
****
hey shush, quiet, he said or the world will know
I am healed now , whole again – no scars to show
your Sacrifice was great and will ever be appreciated
but now you need to leave for my own life to be re-created
****
her shattered heart , her shattered dream, her shuttered eyes
he appeared not to see as they silently said their Goodbyes
in response to Daily Prompt – SACRIFICE
Great to see the ripples and reflections once again. Glad you are back. Yet another emotional response to the prompt
