Love Ones Gone

Loved Ones Gone

Love and pain with scars that remain     

Everything he worked for was done in vine

 Bitter world took his family away

Alone cold hearted he lay

Used to spend his days making bread  

Making money thought he was ahead

Never realized he lost his value as a family man

Love lost no home reasons why the family ran

Denial is always the first stage

Heartbroken packed with rage

Suicidal thoughts cross his mind more than twice

In his mind he’s seen his death a 1000 times choking on rice

The one thing he loved more than working

Malfunctioned completely and stopped working

The unappreciated love and joy

He once knew had simply gone away

If he could go back in time and spend more time change his ways would everything be okay, when is it too late right before the love starts to fade with everything gone a man was left with an empty castle as home

I really enjoyed this poem, and I’m looking forward to reading more of your pieces. I'm kind of new on here and it would be an honor if you can review my 4 new recent poems. (The world is ours, Nostalgia, Paradise, and You)

Thank you and Keep up the Good work!

Reflects real issues esp in Africa where people migrate leading to alienation. After all money isnt everything
