What was mine

That which was mine
Now stands far apart
The love that was promised
Now stands long gone
Still I am waiting
With long bated breath
To test the waters,
to see if it actually was ever mine
No says the wind, so says the sea,
And so I have made friends with hope I believe
I am still alive....waiting to meet life again
The poem remains incomplete
As long as hope remains and life does not arrive.
