How Could You

Your arms were my castle Your words were my battle But in a twinkle of an eye You said goodbye Now it's a million degrees below zer in my blood It's like lm buried 50 feet underground I'm drawing in my own world of loneliness And in my thoughts of sadness You left isolated and deserted Now lm feeling rejected My life has turned into an unending highway In whose days are a nightmare My heart is bleeding in silent tears And just like my heart My life is shattered into a thousand pieces The silence of your laugh The sudden vanishing of your face The absence of your dance And the muteness of your voice Is slowly killing me I walk in the empty streets with shattered dreams I lie awake to miss you with unfulfilled wishes I eat daily with everlasting regrets Although with a hallowed place in my heart Only you can fill I say back off loneliness And hello tenderness

Rutendo, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
