Quote = “A letdown is worth a few songs. A heartbreak is worth a few albums.”- Taylor Swift

In shadows cast upon a broken soul, A tale unfolds of love's relentless toll, A male lover once ablaze with fervent fire, Now gripped by anguish, lost in the mire. His heart, a canvas, once painted in hues, Of love's sweet melodies and tender cues, But now it wears the scars of deep despair, A masterpiece shattered beyond repair. His eyes, once bright, with dreams of tomorrow, Now echo sorrow, drowning in deep sorrow, For love's tender touch has turned so cold, Leaving shattered dreams, stories left untold. His love, a departed comet in the vast night sky, Leaving trails of memories, a silent goodbye, A nest that was full, now echoes hollow and bare, Laughter and voices, replaced by solitude's air. He weeps in silence, his tears like rain, Painful reminders of love's cruel disdain. In the quiet hours of the fading light, He whispers to the stars, to the moon so bright, "I'll embrace what's left, find the silver lining, For in life's unraveling, there's beauty in defining."

Even in the darkest sky, there can be a silver lining ! Though love is lost, not everything is lost. Started on a highly depressing vein, it has ended on a note of hope. Enjoyed this beautifully rhyming poem.

It so hard in real life to find Love that last no matter what. All difficulties are faced and overcome together. Thanks for opening your heart and sharing your thoughts with us through your poetry, my friend. Have a pleasant weekend! Bill
