Words Can't Convey

Words can't convey what I'm feeling, color sheds all its shades but blue; betrayal has left me reeling. It seems my heart's not worth stealing and holds little value for you; words can't convey what I'm feeling. I wait at the altar, kneeling, my broken heart ripped in two; betrayal has left me reeling. My hurting heart's beyond healing, deceived by all that I thought true; words can't convey what I'm feeling. Blankly staring at the ceiling I just don't know what I should do; betrayal has left me reeling. My life's falling apart, dealing with all the shame you put me through. Words can't convey what I'm feeling; betrayal has left me reeling.

I just read my first villanelle poem And it was written by you Emile. This is one of the best rhyming poems I've read. Good write Emile.

When love is lost, it can be found again...that's when the healing begins. Your poignant words cut straight to the heart, Emile...hugs to you, Rhonda

When love is destroyed it is the most depressing thing in the world. Either that or the urge to physically harm the one who left you standing there all alone. It is sad anyway you look at it. Why can't we just make the extra effort in relationships?
