Poetry: Moving forward

I wish you well.

When pushed toward ones breaking point,
before that final snapping sound,
we hold on like there's nothing else,
on Earth alike all we have found,
Til time reveals the painful truth,
the fact, your friends have many times,
encouraged you to understand,
it kind of feels like rhyme-less rhymes.

And when that snap rings loudly, friends,
well you all know, you've reached that place,
where you wish you were taken off,
by aliens to outer space,
because no place on Earth will give,
you chance to find a little peace,
where you can let your septic go,
in salty drops of rich release.

I'll pray tonight, before I sleep,
that one and all of you are well,
and pray that mercy shows a face,
and gentles life a little spell.
When rounding off, my last request,
will be one as an utter plea,
the Gods reveal their self to all,
and of all demons set all free.

    She left that life behind her,
    refused to shed another tear.
    Flew that flag of sweet surrender,
    'til the anger disappeared.

    Tell me a sad tale.

    The one about your broken heart.

    How he stole the biggest part.

    How he hurled it onto the ground.

    Frittering the hours away
    A wasted day again

    An Angel's Wish

    Once, long ago
    It seems an eternity
    I had love
    If only for a moment

    It was all in my hands
    I knew
