Those Snowy Washington Mountains

Those Snowy Washington Mountains

A Poem by Wild Willow Blue
"

How a love reacts when love is gone..

"

You were once the most beautiful thing in my life

now you’re gone and everything turned to shadows

I had no idea how you changed me, till you left

now when I look at your picture I want to rip it

but I can’t get rid of it, and I keep calling you

Don’t you understand that I just want to talk?

You’re in every song I hear on the radio

and in every movie I see

I have to rip up your picture, I have to forget your number

sure, I’ll be sad, but I’ve cried long enough

I can’t do this to myself anymore

maybe some fresh air will help me clear my head of you

maybe if I lose your face, I’ll forget who you are

but tonight I prayed

I prayed that I would see your face again

hear your voice again

that I would get another turn on the good side of love

Maybe someday we can dance together

on those snowy Washington mountains

Wow I can relate. Great descriptions and all of it was true. How the want of ripping the picture, almost removing them from life, but we know we'd be broken in every way if we did.
The descriptions were perfect and the meanin and idea were flawless. I love the promising last line.
Amazing job

I think this poem has great potential. Perhaps consider being a bit more descriptive? For example maybe what movies and songs remind you of the person? What moments, what words? Why? Show me.

if theres one thing i like in this poem, its that the stuff you say in it are very very human. like "but I can’t get rid of it, and I keep calling you
Don’t you understand that I just want to talk?" none of the over cliche bullshit. i like it. its something i would do if i was the person going through the emotions portrayed in the poem. another good poem
