I miss nothing

Love lost leave lonely places and disappointment.

I will miss nothing

You told me I was the only one once. Just whispered fairy tales  to enhance the moment and the need.

Naked bodies fought for the hunger of the flesh and forgot the heart will wish and hope.

 

Wishes and hope become dirty words when the body cries out for more. I thought you were my muse. I learn

too late. You were my cold of Winter siren. Wanting attention till I had nothing left. Leaving me for dead when the new days of Spring rebirth.

 

I begged for your love and you told me. Love is just another four letter word with bad consequences. Can’t make the heart complete. We are too numb to know love is the utopia for the few. People, like us, seek wanting flesh and bones and forget to worship and care for the heart.

 

Now I have my whiskey and song. Words written into journals. I wrote the words.

I miss nothing.

As soft tears fall and I know I lies.

 

Coyote/John Castellenas

old heartbreaks of love will remain a faded memory of the past... that's what I assume it is... because life becomes a fast approach now a days... people around us comes and goes... always a new beginning in every brand new day... to cherish to what you have now is much important... beautifully sad crafted piece here my friend, thank you for sharing!

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Pax. The song gave me reasons to write.

[Travis Gibson (poetic h..]

Wow... so many lines to learn from as a writer and lover! This is a very potent write and my favorite of yours, so very well done here. I'm applauding!

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you. I was motivated by the good song.

[Matching Socks]

This broke my heart, I think some people have just closed their hearts to love.
Well done my friend. I love this picture.

The song is very good. Thank you Ana for reading and the comment.

You are welcome. I did listen, you always have great songs!

[Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)]

Nice song which inspired you to write.
I like the concept of your piece here. Sometimes, when we realize that we have loved the wrong person, pain and heartache will teach us how to become numb, sometimes to have a heart so hard as stone, then we will recognize in the end, we only remember the story but we never miss the person.

Good job!

[Coyote Poetry]

You are right my friend. We always want what we can't have. Thank you for reading and the comment.

A very sad and tragic situation to be in. Most if not all of us have been there sad to say.
A very well done poem.
