A Time To Move On

I sat in the company of nature resting in the once powerful arms of a great fallen Oak. I settled back, filled my lungs with the country's virgin air and slowly scanned the quiet beauty of an undisturbed natural world. I had been here many times before, but never alone, never so lonely. I lowered my head and closed my eyes in an attempt to chase the confusion from my mind. My eyes finally open and as I look to the ground I wondered, "Have other's been here or am I the first?"  Yesterday was filled with something I thought had been love and those I thought were friends forever had moved on to another chapter. There had come a time to move on and somehow, I had missed it.
