Love

Falling into an abyss with the loss of a loved one.

 

                Love…

 

Sometimes when it rains, a rainbow will appear, a gentle breeze, a welcome glow and a smile to cheer.

A ray of sunshine touches my cheek, a breath of air caresses my ear, an earthquake shakes my legs and an icicle melts within.

 

Caught in a whirlwind of feelings some old and some new, not understanding the experience, everything’s askew.

 

A sea of calm turns to turmoil, howling winds and driving rain.  Cold and miserable, tired and hungry, longing for peace again.

 

The leaves fall and with it I fall into a ravine, an overpowering sense of loss, confusion and pain.

 

Like ice I am frozen, motionless, and numb.  Was it love that I felt or am I just dumb?

 

Does anybody really care the feelings that I feel, after all this is my poem and I’m diagnosed as ill.

 

To recover is not simple there is so much pain, how can I show my feelings and feel whole again?

As you clearly wrote, love can be a storm that sometimes ravishes the heart, mind and soul. You entailed the beauty of it as well as the ugly. Overall this was a excellent write.

This poem was very very good. It has a nice rhythm to it.The best part of it for me was the last line. It has power in it.
