• Trying tearfully
    to live cheerfully.
    Loving longingly,
    but wanting to be free.
    I want eternally
    for him to be with me.
    But love overrides love
    like a mourning dove.
    I am lost to this path,
    lost in the aftermath
    of a dream I tried
    to make real inside.
    But love overrides love
    like a mourning dove.
    And I am free,
    tearfully
