Another Tear


You paved a path
of cobblestones
with an absent love
that left me alone
so my road
was rough
made me tough
because
I was aware
of the emptiness
created by a father
who wasn’t there
and though my thoughts
were bent
they were never twisted
because of a mother
who was also a father
existed
so when I grabbed truth
with youth
she taught me
the hard reality
that if I used you
as an excuse
then I deserved
life’s abuse
but . . .
as she would say
that tomorrow
was the moment
I live today
so if life isn’t better
then I need to make a few changes
because it won’t last forever
and my change is
to let go
and forgive
because anger
is pain
and pain is hurt
and you’re not worth
another tear
