Laughing eyes crying
Pain stricken heart
Silence that screams
of friendships’ deceit
Tangled emotions
Love, hate, and fear
Somehow forgiven
Lost feelings emerge
Saved by the love
from which we turned
Lesson learned
Never recur
Listen more closely
to unspoken words
Can’t eradicate past
Can’t obliterate pain
Can’t rewind time
Respect to regain
Hearts pounding
Hearts torn
Trust to rebuild
Starting over
So thankful
True love reborn
