Somehow Distance Scars(Complicity)
Bruce Hitt 1974 (Santa Maria)
Love a start of what became,
Days that they had shared together,
SOMEHOW felt between the two,
Laughing with those times.....
Pain a part of what they gave,
Still they both cared for each other,
DISTANCE went between the two,
Crying as they tried.....
Bled their hearts in different ways,
Hurt not spared from one another,
SCARS were left between the two,
Bleeding while love died.....
[For Marissa]
About this poem
Written right after a break-up. Story of love and loss, not accepting the realization that the relationship was slipping away-all the while trying to make it work and hold broken pieces together.
