Falling, falling faster
memories of love rushing through my brain
remembering her face
the way she made me feel
to hold her in my arms, to feel her lips to mine
and how my heart once soared from her love
falling faster, not wanting this dream to end
then suddenly, my heart shatters
striking the cold harshness of reality
that my love she no longer desires
my touch she no longer craves
so I lie here, broken and alone
her life moves on, full of life and happiness
as my life slowly dies, frozen in sorrow
and other heartache chalked up
as the rest is only silence


Fear destroys the mind, depression destroys the soul... only love and compassion may save you from death.

All the power of this piece winds it ways to the last two lines, a wonderful touch there, I love those two lines.
Well done.

With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free..

Sadly, a familiar tale...

It's said we learn from such experiences and I agree - but don't you wish there was an easier way to learn?

Nice write...

Waking mountains make intimate conversations
With my shadow

This trail I have walked several times, it's a deep grove in my life.
You have expressed it well.

Joel.

I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.
