Contributed by Silent-No-More on Saturday, 14th August 2004 @ 12:55:30 PM in AEST
Topic: LostLove




If I may never tell you of my love again
I shall remain mute until time’s end
Ashamed of my own voice, shaking, hollow
A voice that breaks and cries and wallows

If I never again find you in the sunrise
I shall eventually just close my eyes
Refusing to see horrid reality, obvious, true
My eyes blurred by tears and thoughts of you

Oh! Love, if you never again take my hand
I shall forever be lost to this land
Disappearing into the night, invisible, gone
For days without you are unbearably long

If I ever dissever my heart from your hands
I shall slip away like hourglass sand
Falling deep into nothingness, empty, cold
Clutching my lonely heart, used and old

And if our souls cannot be together here
I shall wait in heaven for you, my dear
Waiting there for you to arrive, soaring, free
So we might fly, together, into eternity

There's so much emotion and pain and beauty in this I don't know what to say. Wish I did.

Instead, I suppose I'll just sit here silently, in awe, and hoping smiles come your way and soon . . .

SNM, I think in your 5th verse, 3rd line, you possibly meant for that word to be soaring? Otherwise this is very sad and reflective, yet pours love out of its vessel in every word. This is a beautiful write.

Lovely write, wistful and sad, but not desperate - merely filled with that loneliness that comes with lost love. I thought this was touching.

I actually pictured you on a stage, speaking this. Don't ask me why - the image just popped into my head during the first stanza. And no - I'm not going to say what I think you look like - because I wasn't really looking at you, I was looking at the words you were saying, which were . . . heartrending, and yet hopeful, , ,

"If I ever dissever my heart from your hands
I shall slip away like hourglass sand"

That's a powerful image. Keep writing.

I love this. What can I say about it that others haven't already? Beautiful. Love like that is rare and something to be held very close to our hearts. Your metaphors were excellent. Outstanding write!

5 Stars and but a million more, a true joy to the world of poetry

Beautifully romantic. The kind of poem I just want to grab on to and let it take me away.

So heartfelt and full of honest emotion. Yes, a little desperation, but I still sense a little light. Nice poem.

Aw, I simply love this poem. Throughout the feeling of being forlorn with lost love and then in the end, the forever hope of happiness in what lies beyond. Very very gripping.

I adore this line:

"I shall slip away like hourglass sand"

(absolutely loving your way with words)
