The world is empty to my view, landscapes are dull and dirty grey, sunrise distorted and askew, the evening hours my heart's dismay. So quickly do the fortunes turn, crumbled in a heated rush, cruel searing pain in waves do burn, angry intent the soul does crush. Not distant in my love's sweet past, a kindred heart embraced in kind, swore fiercely that her love would last, abruptly now expunged from mind. Cold empty arms in lonely stance, deep ache to bear, no time to mourn, all hope denied, no second chance, foul ashes do my lips adorn. |

Peg, The pain feels all too real--well conveyed in the mournful dirge of a love that's lost forever. A well written piece. David |

This is very well done! Cold empty arms in lonely stance, deep ache to bear, no time to mourn, all hope denied, no second chance, foul ashes do my lips adorn. |

Pegasus; You are so very talented at writing these romantic and lovely poems, even tho this one is so sad. Broken hearts do heal and are stronger for it, thus able to love again. Ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |
