Forsaken

by

Robert Cameron Hazelton

Dealing with unpleasant memories
Is sometimes better to evade,
Till time’s been allowed to blunt the edge
Of betrayal’s cold, keen blade.

Prior to fencing your inner demons
Permit emotion to temper,
A blade forged of strong commitments
Will surely be your savior.

Remember, your worst possible course
Is to seek some recompense,
Striving to replace the love you’ve lost
Without using common sense.

You must have time to know yourself,
To follow your own dreams;
Love for another is incomplete
When life has no scheme.

So, cope with everything you must
In whatever way you can,
But know you can’t command your future
Without some kind of plan.
