THE LETTER

THE LETTER

A Poem by doreen cyr
"

HEART BREAK OF FIRST LOVE

"

Your letter came today.

I put into my left hand top pocket

And ran through the vine yard.

To the big tree where we used to meet.

Excitement overwhelming me.

It has been so long since you left.

 

Hands shaking, I tare the envelope,

I love you so much, I hope your coming home.

I begin to read with anticipation,

Then I stare in disbelief, it can't be.

You found someone else there?

What about us and our love.

 

I sit in shocked silence, staring.

No longer comprehending the words.

I think you say your sorry.

I think you say that I was to young.

I think you say for me to move on.

All I can do is sit and cry.

Awww Doreen, what a wonderful emotionally sad story. Young love has always been the hardest to die and the loss of it that hurt the worst. The pain in this write cannot be overstated.

Oh, yes the pain of first love gone bad. I think maybe most of us can relate to that.
You never forget those feelings of hurt and thinking how you are going to ever recover!

You expressed this wonderfully, be it your muse or real life. Well done! Much enjoyed
although it was a bit of a "tissue alert" lol

Thank you for submitting to Tony's challenge and keeping the dream alive!

True Love must come from both hearts, true love on your part? Maybe but not on his
Chalk this one up to lost love
I enjoyed this write, although lost love is sad it's usually for the best
Nicely written
