Let's not give up!
I could lead
the charge and get us through it.
I might as well
wait for a century.
But, what you
think is lost,
I want you to know
Was more air than I ever had
To breathe.

This is my response to Trifecta's
weekend challenge, which was to write 36 words which includes the words
"charge," "century," and "lost." Have a
great weekend!
I love this! It is so meaningful and thought provoking!

DeleteI read this yesterday and left the window open to read again. Really a sensitive, reflective statement. You hear about love unrequited, love ignited, but the stepping back and letting the unresponsive love to do their part is a great reflection. I'm impressed you said so much in so little words.
