Is It Over

"is it over"

I don't see your eyes 
the look of love from you
I don't hear your voice 
the sound of love for me
I don't feel your touch 
the sense of love for us

is it over or can the light begin anew
anew that brought us together back when
back when all senses colored our world

let me see your eyes from that first glance
let me hear your voice from your first whisper
let me feel your touch from our first embrace

is it over or can the light begin anew
anew with passion that was always there
there to have to hold to keep forevermore

Hi Lisa, we seem to be missing each other lately but i do love reading your poems. This one leaves me a little confused as i can only guess why 'is it over' I feel a sadness as I read it but if love was present, it can be re-kindled, depending on the nature of the problem of course. Keep happy and safe, your poetry is amazing. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Dear Jennifer Hi. So nice to see you. Yes it has been a long time. I seem to come and go and I don't seem to be consistent with being active do to my own health or taking care of my mom. With this entry I thought I would turn the tables and write of a faded love because I usually write of love that is present (smile) It is wonderful to see your name once again. Have a wonderful night. And yes, I hope I am deserving of your most gracious and generous review and comments. Blessings always thank you. (smile)

Lisa such an interesting thought provoking poem. I think a struggling question for many empty nesters….kids leave home, retirement and relationship in a state of “is this it” as it lacks all that your poem mentions. Can it be rekindled or not?? Enjoyed your poem a great deal my friend. Debx

Silly Anil. Me, Give up on love. You have me smiling because I am the forever believer in love for one and all. And yes, this is not about me (smiile). The was the flip side of love or a faded love. Since I just posted an entry just before this I thought it would be funny on my behalf to write the opposite. Silly silly Anil (another smile). Thank you ever so much. Truly. Never do I take your visits or your shared commentary for granted. The bring a smile o my face. May this day find you well and safe. Love and Blessings now and always coupled with Shalom Shalom Namaste Namaste......

An almighty question Lisa, such sensitivity in your poem, to touch us all one day, yet to have and to lose, is so hard to anticipate, but knowing one day a reality..You have such a sweet soul, to have written this. Harry
