your love,
your sweet love,
is swept away,
the harsh wind of fate
clutches,tearing,
ripping you from
my arms,
leaving only
bittersweet
memories,
their indelible
footprints,
seared into my mind,
mournful tattoos
adorn my bleeding heart,
the plaintive wails,
torn from an agonized throat,
smothered by the roar
of the merciless gale,
are unheard,
unheeded,
trampled by
a cadence of
unforgiving circumstance




the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Pegasus~

Wow ... such a gripping emotional outpouring.

'the plaintive wails,
torn from an agonized throat,
smothered by the roar
of the merciless gale,
are unheard,
unheeded,
trampled by
a cadence of
unforgiving circumstance'


I guess we always hope that there is room for forgiveness ...

Pegasus; Such an exquisitely heart wrenching poem of unreqited love! I adore the romance though! You surely have a romantic heart and a pen to go with it, but why waste that heart on someone unattainable, when you deserve so much more!  Ellie

A good write, love the way you express the emotion.

Life has got to chnage,
Nothing stays the same,
Soon it will be time,
For me to move on.

Wow!  This is heart-wrenching!  That's a lot of pain packed into a few lines.  

To love another person is to see the face of God.

This is a very well written poem.  I always like a poem with finely chosen words.  Good diction is like shooting an arrow.  I think you hit the bullseye here, in that your thoughts were very accurately and tastefully expressed.
