POEM: Dear John

Behind the tears
Lies the pain
No more love
Can I retain

The emotion is deep
And the scar is lasting
A mind bent
A heart collapsing

I loved for the time
And endured the fight
But there is darkness
Far beyond the light

I’ll hold dear
What this heart felt
But no longer shall
My soul melt

Years I’ve grown
With thoughts of you
But too much of me
Is left confused

Goodbye I say
To this game
But John I shall
Remember your name
