    Departure

    To chase the dream, pursue its liquid tracks.
    In waking moments, not only while asleep.
    A widowed man, no shame in tears he weeps.
    The death a final blow, a swift cold axe.
    It is better than a man betrayed by dreams
    his love no longer shares.

    Liked this small poem very much well done

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
