No one faces lost love rationally, forgoing all their romantic notions. For confusion confounds reality, when running a gauntlet of emotions. Doubt anonymously attacks with guile, its impact devastating to dreamers. And fears flourish on the remains of trust, disrupting slumber with nightmare screamers. You've been fed a concoction of lies, a highly emotional potent mix. And you're no longer able to forgive, shielding your heart behind a wall of bricks. Wallowing in your pain, you shun support, as fantasies conceived in love, abort. (Sonnet) 10/12/2017

There is no pain quite like the loss of a lover. That pain can last a lifetime. You have conveyed this beautifully in your poem Emile. Congratulations on your win! : )

Wow, Emile! Fantastic poem and a FAV for sure. But, even though the poem accurately and deeply depicts the feelings we have after having lost a lover and our eyes are opened to an unpleasant truth, I say, "Never give up!" :)

Thanks Carole, "Never give up!" is a healthy attitude that I whole heartedly concur with my friend, Emile.
