The Years Pass Us By- Dedicated to my Sister

The years pass us by, and still we don't meet eye to eye

In the silent screaming resentments, the quiet pretending...the vagueness of words.

The shaming experience, the never feeling good enough or forgiven enough..

The Years pass us by, and we still don't meet eye to eye

Our frozen emotions...

Our frozen lives...

Our frigid frozen eyes....never connecting, a drifting in and out...then good byes.

The Years Pass us by...the truths the lies...the silence of Our demise

We live in disguise...

Somewhere we lost each other in life's battle cry

Removed and worlds apart, this may never heal, there is a death in the heart.

The regrets, the total disconnect, the lack of respect.

The Years Pass Us by and still frustration lingers inside

Time has no mercy for our internal collide

It goes on and on...until one day we both subside.

I hope time will be kind......and heal our lives.

The Years Pass Us by

The mistakes made

The words said

Misdeeds, things never correct..

I wish us both the best.

Life always has another test

Its how we rise to the quest...

The Years Pass Us by.....and we remain forever in this silent awful mess.

When you write about everything being frozen, it gives a vivid image as well as a flood of emotion because you are writing this poem about someone who should be close to you. "It's how we rise to the quest" is a line that spoke to me because this line tells how we can only make a difference if we try our best.
