The story ended
Right
Where apt beginning should have been,
They pretended
Not
To have dreamt or been or seen all they had seen.
Souls suspended
Just
As nightmare turned into the dream,
Lives upended
Breaks
The charm when nothing’s as it seems.
Grief, distended,
Cries
The tears that fill the seas and streams,
Hope intended
In
Heaven’s harmony that hoves between.
Lives pretended,
Wasted
Esssence of the might have been,
All life offended,
Sorry
Fuelled in furnace of obscene.
Love has mended
Futility,
Despair that robs serene,
Hands extended,
Giving
Self, bespoken, intervenes.
“Essence of the might have been” is a line that will ring forever in my ears

I hate regrets. Onwards and upwards always.
