Somehow Tomorrow

Acrostic~left without wings~

 

 

Longing to still be your love
Each new night, slowly dims grey
For when you left, you stole the moon above 
That gave me hope to face another new day

Watching the river flowing 'round the bend
 Inside the burning fire has died
The flames of desire once growing,has now end
Heart barely beats in empty ashes, once again
Onward i suppose i should strive in life
Upward soaring to new heights,in a vast sky,but
This soul of mine cannot find courage to

 

When left without wings to try
 In leaving, you have stripped me of my strength
 Nothing now, seems to make much sense
 Going on tho~ I will try
 Somehow Tomorrow, I Shall Fly

Hi Fran. I am truly impressed. I have never seen such a plump (??) acrostic. I didn't know you could do that! Like I said, I'm astounded at some of the poems like this that I read!!! love this one too, alf

[Fran Marie]

Yes, sometimes the acrostic is a phrase that isn'the title..a variety of acrostics can be experimental til you f ind the right combination..thanks again

[alf]

I'm definitely going to give this format a try. Love it!!

[Emily Paige]

I loved this A LOT. It was an intense acrostic which is hard to do awesome job!

[KatiePie]

The last line in this is what drives this over the edge for the reader, I mean don't get me wrong reading this the entire piece is compelling the reader to love it to an extent (for me atleast) that is unbearable, but the last line, left me breathless.

i hope the moon has been returned and is now shining for you. and that the pinfeathers have molted away and once more you can fly. this was well crafted and the strength comes in the determination at the end.

So very sad and even then you write--
Going on tho~ I will try
Somehow Tomorrow, I Shall Fly

Positive message in this.
Nicely done.

I like your style of writing. It feels real! And I know what you mean in this poem. Sometimes losing the love of your life feels like death. That pain that is in your heart hurts so bad. I really like your writing.
