As time imparts- my broken heart

As time imparts- my broken heart

By Tony DeLorger © 2011

As time imparts,

imbues our hearts,

with love retained,

impressions made.

While age dictates

and memories ache,

of past mistakes,

and lost love takes.

The fuel within,

of fallen sin,

now weakened sigh,

and clarity’s lie.

I cling to life,

not question why,

the loves I’ve lost,

shall not rely.

On wasted blame,

my soul defamed,

I am the same,

my angst now lain.

Oh twisted views,

of past refuse,

to release my soul

from actions old.

In memory stand,

with aged hands,

I grasp for truth,

remain aloof.

For wisdom gained,

is still my pain,

right from the start,

my broken heart.
