He told me I love you infinitely

He told me I love you infinitely

A Poem by Amber
"

A Poem written amidst heartbreak questioning our choice and use of words

"
What is infinity?
It's the state of being infinite
It's limitless, it's unbounded
That I know for definite
But sometimes in its use I find myself confounded
Even often how would you put it?
Wholeheartedly dumbfounded
I assure you this problem to me has precedence and seems completely legit
But in my eyes infinite should mean just that...infinite

A synonym for infinite is never-ending
This would suggest something unceasing, unfaltering or unrelenting
Yet that word got used so easily
Always so effortlessly and so readily
So much that now it feels ferocious and vicious
That I am left with something so injudicious

How can a human lose compassion so fast?
How does infinite become finite at last?
I don't think my answers are to be found in the past 
And all of these questions probably make him feel harassed 

Now lets be honest the truthful answers? I probably don't want to know
So chin up...shoulder's back...lets walk away and just leave footprints in the snow

This is my first poem in a long time so any feedback would be lovely
not quite sure what style i've ended up in I was inspired by spoken word poetry but i'm not sure if this is better as spoken word or not

A truly heartfelt poem. It felt like you were taking us through how you felt about the word infinite. Thanks for sharing.

I liked that you have so emotion. You speak from the heart.

I think these days infinity means is until things change. Loving forever can change so easily for some, leaving those left in the wind with so many questions and no one to answer.
I really like how you broke this piece up into three. Firstly, we have how it's used, then how it should be used, then how it is sadly used. It keeps the tempo throughout and I like the questioning nature of it.
Just one little point. Start of second last verse you say loose compassion, should be lose. Apart from that, a very enjoyable write. Thank you for sharing.

This is a topic that nearly every girl can relate to. Heartbreak is one of the most painful things we can go through, thus making it one of the best writing topics. I can definitely see this as a spoken poem more so than a written one. The rhythm of the poem was difficult for me to understand until I read it out loud. Overall, this is a very relatable piece. Good job.

Hi, I like how you have expressed your questions and then ended up with finding the answer yourself. Loved the last line. Keep up the good work. Love, Amrita :)
