Lost Love

If all it took was to tell you in every single language

-Existing or not-

Just how much I miss you

The time it’d take would be a small price to pay

      

But it isn’t that simple, is it?

 

It truly is horrible to know true love and to lose it

Not knowing how to get it back

I guess, this is how I’m young and dumb…

 

You were to me a god

A god I thought had come to earth

My love, forgive me

I gave my love to an imposter

 

They say I’m crazy now

The lady with no home

But what of the life that we had started?

For you were the only one that ever made me feel like I belonged.

 

Is it forgiveness that I am to seek?

Or am I just not calling you in the right way?

However am I to get you back?

Cuz face it,

Not a greater love story has ever been told

But ours was never spoken either, was it?

Only sung.

Sung in the voice of silence.

 

How long since we have spoken?

How long since I told you the tales of all the madness?

How long since you gave me

That one thing that no one else can do for me?

 

I long for your arms.

I long for you to surrender again.

I long for the day I can finally remember

What it’s like to live once I’ve fallen in slumber

For that strange world we could only be together in

Was the only time I truly felt awake

 

Tell me, will I spend eternity

Knowing every time I close my eyes,

I’ll just be closing my eyes?

Have you really taken away my angel wings?

Will I really never dream again?

 

This world was never meant for me.

But that thread we had gave me all my purpose.

Without it, am I to be a soulless body?

I’m sure that was never your intention for me…

 

I know, I was to never speak of you.

Is that what has angered you?

If that is so, I’ll sing you whatever song you like until you have no choice but to let me know I’m heard.

Once again, you make me surprised with the art of your pieces. It's really unbelievable to me that how people are still so creative out there in the world cus, now a days, it's tough to me find such kinda people who are artists..but that's again very impressive. That's really an impressive write once again! You've given a shape to love, to your feelings in a new form from where the droplets of emotions with love dripping down n make the floor immortal at all. I love your work!

Keep up the great job!

[Blue Ivory]

GOOD POEM BEAUTIFUL EXPRESSION AND DONE MAJESTY WITH SOME SHORT OF LOVE AND LIFE LOST WHATEVER BUT I LIKE YOU WHAT YOU WANTED TO SAY.

[Mark]

To love so strongly is either epic or madness. I think you've captured that here in this poem.

[Blue Ivory]

Thank you for seeing it for what it is :)

[Leslie Philibert]

What I like is the internal dialogue, the self questioning, the almost conversational process of reflection.
A fine poem

[Lexi Villanueva]

It real touched me and reminded me of someone. 100

Don't know what lies within the layers of a girls heart. But she always has strong justification at least emotional even if it appears wrong from every angle. Don't let go true love out of your life. There is no
point in living a broken life longing for stolen moment...writing sad ballads, receiving reviews from people of same kind. Life is out there ..go and live it.

Thanks, but I'll take a poet's life over reality any day :)

[Coyote Poetry]

The poem is amazing. A epic journey into lost desire wanting to be found again. The flow of the poem was perfect. You brought the reader in and held their attention to the last words. You said a lot in the poem. Second chances are rare and few. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.
