Seven Years On

He never loved me, but I hoped he might;
I wrapped my heart in tissue, poised for flight,
Ignored the house and let the garden go.
The house still hurts but outside might awaken,
Dead wood discarded and decisions taken;
Where hope has failed to flourish, peace may grow.
What sucks sooner or later has to blow.
