Zyrool Gifford Poet Free verse

Lost Love Pains

Her golden dreams have disappeared, 
Leaving her heart drained,
The echo of his sweet voice keeps her 
awake,
Lost love pains and lingering longings 
ache.

Waiting for the light of morn,
It’s so different from the old 
norm,
Whispers of sweet nothings
all gone, 
Old memories nag, but she fights 
hard to stay strong.

Her broken heart is irreversible,
Imprints of happiness he left behind,
erasing them is impossible,
Words and thoughts are jumbled,
Her heart, a shattered vessel, 
finally crumbles.

The imagery of “a shattered vessel” and the lingering echo of his voice are especially poignant. It beautifully expresses that quiet battle between holding on and letting go. Heartfelt and relatable.

Valsa George May 6, 2025 at 9:03 PM A heart touching write. Life is never a smooth ride. It is interrupted by loss and deprivation. It is so hard to forget a love experience that once made her weave beautiful dreams. Some people are irreplaceable in life. When we lose them, we feel the ground slipping away from under our feet. All the Best dear Zyrool. Zyrool Gifford May 7, 2025 at 7:13 AM Hello Valsa, thank you for the visit and your kind words. Have a wonderful day. Stay Blessed.

Allen Ansell May 6, 2025 at 2:52 AM Hello Zyrool, Many people try and write poetry about loss, and few succeed like you have in my opinion. Hicely written. Experiencing this thing called 'Life' is all about change and accompanying loss it seems. Blessings, Allen PS: Thank you for your comment on my poem.
