Unable To Forget
I had a vision of her walking across heaven
Realizing this while in the pits of a fiery lake
My time’s broken it’s always half past eleven
On the night I committed that crucial mistake
Hell is designed to torment the human mind
By violating emotions that’ll never truly heal
Damnation a cruel device when love is blind
Without any light left darkness will slowly kill
God did not want her pain to forever flow
He erased our history underneath a sunset
In her smile happiness has a cosmic glow
She’ll never remember I’m unable to forget

Author's Note
Late night musing. Think about being separated from the love of your life for eternity. It's a real mind-fuck isn't it? I'm fine folks, just thinking out loud. Appreciate you.

These are topics I rather won't think about, though it's unfortunately reality.
Love your last line, it gave me goosebumps. Great piece, my friend.

Oof! That last line! *gulp*
Milton once said, "The mind can make a hell of heaven and a heaven of hell." Maybe one day humanity will get that.

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Tams. It was a very heavy write to compose. That last line is very haunting indeed. Maybe one day, all we can do is hope. Appreciate you.

You've reminded me of the first girl I ever took to a movie (Excalibur, 1981)
She was one of our class of '82 valedictorians; a beautiful girl with a beautiful mind,
and a year after graduation she was killed in an automobile accident.
Just the wastefulness of it all was staggering.

Oh my...I remember once writing about a mermaid in love with the moon. No matter what, they'll never be together. It was a silly poem but the emotions evoked by such a situation as this (or that silly one) pulls hard on the heart strings. And that last line is like a sledgehammer to the cranium...powerful
