Chris Green Poet Rhyme

Forever Lost

Forever lost 

Sorrow now drizzles from lingering clouds,
drenching my life in despair
Dampening spirits a’ fall of the rain,
empty these puddles I stare

Drowning in loneliness filling the day,
void of the sun we adored
Flooding the vacancy found in my life,
steady the reasons now poured

Floating along every gutter of fear,
weathered my face of the storm
Crying as caverns appear in my heart,
gaping the holes that now form

If this shall be what my destiny brings,
slowly I take my last breath
For I am nothing at all without her,
drifting this river of death

Take me for I have no reason to be,
sink every dream I have known
Whisper the truth that I don’t want to hear,
forever lost and alone

Good night Soupers

Connie Marcum Wong February 9, 2017 at 4:52 AM Our moods do change with the weather and sometimes all we need is a little sunshine to brighten our mood. Getting over someone is never easy but the pain fades as time goes by. A melancholy poem that is so well written and moving Chris! Goodnight and sweet dreams. ; ) 7 Chris Green February 13, 2017 at 11:58 AM Thank you so very much Connie.
