Joy Streaked Sorrow

Gone for so long

I reach out once more.

I’m afraid to move on,

But I know the future is more.

 

This time not forgotten,

I will carry it always.

Within my heart.

I’ve seen many things end and begin in my life, even if they are not things that are on a stage like Trifectra. They have been something to me and though I have mourned their ending, knowing that each ending can be another’s beginning has given me joy within that sorrow.

Thank you, Trifectra editors, your challenges helped me learn that you can say a lot with only a little.
