Tears falling like autumn leaves
heart as cold as a winters breeze
Promises shattered like broken glass
forever and always but nothing lasts

Love as dry as the crunching leaves
a lusting heart yearns and decieves
Broken promises and a shattered heart
A happy home stolen and torn apart

I am elated that this is not a personal
experience...though I know there are many
who have felt similar feelings....you
have penned them well.

Ouch. I’m glad to hear this isn’t from personal experience. You write the pain of it very well.

Stevie darling boy, (Did I do all that?) And I wasn't even trying too.

No seriously this is utterly utterly wonderful. It is truly perfection, the lines flow like water. Absolutely perfect

Wonderful Writing

    
Love and warm stuff

Where did my original reply go to?

Anyway, the rhyme and rhythm were "right on" and the imagery was excellent.

Very well written! I really like the flow.

A hearts tale
sad but true
But soon love arrives
To embrace you

*feeling very poetic today* LOL
