Jack Horne Poet Free verse

I Am Bored With Loneliness

Loneliness embraces me
now that you are gone
and my life is a meaningless maze. 
Coldness and hardness 
replaced your sweet pseudo love. 
I can not believe that I will never again 
hold your hand; nor kiss your lips. 
Your soft voice still whispers love to me at night; 
but you are silent and invisible when I wake.  
You never desert me in my dreams. 
Will you ever be there once more in reality? 
Or am I doomed to this eternal void without you? 
Dear mistress of my heart and cruel heart breaker, 
pretend that you still care, as you once used to.


(Remembering being bored with a broken heart for this contest)
Jack Horne
