Broken

A Poem by F.Gentil

Poetry

"
My love, the light that made me happy.
I search through endless suffering to renew broken bridges.
I try and turn tables.
But the tables are weak and collapse at my feet.
I wait from a word from you.
A hi, a let's talk.
But it doesn't come.
It feels like I am dead.
A ghost of a love that has passed.
I don't sing, I hate dancing,  the art that you were a muse to me, makes me want to quit living in a daydream.
A fantasy of a mirage of hopeful ideas.
I give it away.
Maybe I need to refocus.
Maybe I need to emerge myself in work.
Nothing is pleasurable.
Nothing feels right.
If this is what my life will be,
I will grow old an unhappy man.
I loved twice.
Once briefly,
The latter was supposed to be eternity.
Now I face eternity alone.
I'm a weak man,
A disgrace.
Misplaced.
On the verge of being erased.
Time won't remember my legacy.
I'm just another john doe.

DEEP...you show your tenderness in this poem which shows your continuous growth in your writing...I felt the gnawing pain one feels in a loving situation. I hope you are still writing my friend. :)
