Symbols in the rain

So then you went away,
soft blue September day.
How love disappeared-
you suddenly weren’t here.
Losing you was not
An experience to forget
Earthquakes in my heart
Since we were drawn apart.
My heart in fragments then.
A jigsaw to begin
Now I am fresh born.
A stained glass window formed,
From fragments stuck with glue.
A pattern came anew.
My heart is tougher now
A strength within me grew
The way I had to go……..
Life’s deep river flowed
Only now I know…………..
Earthquakes in our hearts
We all know our parts
my life comes anew
Since I’m not bound to you.
New patterns can be made
From life’s colours and shades.
Not what I first chose.
I was one of those
Who planned my life ahead;
But what I got instead,
Feelings newly born.
When my own soul was harmed
Cracks let in the rain,
And I broke up again.
Not what I had planned
When my adult life began.
I don’t know where you are
But though you’re gone,I care.
I don’t hold on to hate,
As a terminal life state
I saw the ground split wide.
As I broke up deep inside.
What is in or out?
In pain,perception’s doubt.
From that fragmented state
My new self was made
Earthquake in my heart,
Love had made a start.
But patterns can be wrong.
That love did not stay long,
The pattern was destroyed.
Hate by heart employed
Made patterns subtly new.
I was sad that I lost you,but
Earthquake in my heart,
Gave me another start.
Stained glass window panes
Look through in the rain.
Stained glass colours glow
My eyes  light  and I know.
Stained glass in the rain
I will feel love again.
Stained glass colours glow
Inner light will show.
Earthquake in my heart
I’ll make another start.
Standing in the rain
Living through the pain.
Colours will now blend
And my heart will mend.
Earthquake in my heart
When my lover went
Earthquake in my soul
One day I’ll be whole.
Stained glass mirrors gleam
Life’s not what I dreamed.
Symbols in the rain
Symbols of shared pain.
Mirrors of my heart
Shattered into parts.
Bleeding wounds will heal.
This is how life feels.
Earthquakes in my heart
When my love departs.
