Love Downhill

A decade of love now downhill A relationship gone all sour Mortal love rotting from within Of human might showing power. Shadow of emptiness in souls Exposed over years to wind and rain Like flowers fallen to the ground Feet trampling you, feeling no pain. Feeling a vacant dream like state We vacate the space of the heart Memories of happier times Draws a blank, with decay we part. 24.09.2020 Quatrain Poem. 8 syllables per line.
