Moments Scribbled

Something exceptional in this 
world of written words we once shared 
Minutes turned into hours spent 
opened hearts soon had cared 

Consequences meaningful or 
at least they were to me 
Nights you spent in my dreams, 
from you I could not be free

Craved your music evermore, 
your voice did not deceive
Knowing the gentle touch of our 
lips would be heaven to receive 

Special moments scribbled back and 
forth left an everlasting impression 
Ultimately accomplished only 
left me to then question

Still generously and unhesitatingly 
I relaxed walls I built 
Realizing the extraordinary 
good fortune not guilt 

When you left soon my words 
lost meaning soon it was unveiled 
Tidal volume of pain within
me as i then exhaled 

Unique love unlikely, 
possibilities were now dismissed 
Leaving me heartbroken, 
dagger in my chest as you twist

Oh, the agony of 'the tidal wave of pain,' Brenda. Deeply felt. You've penned waves of emotion. ~ Joy Forever, Gershon

WoW! Brenda, You have penned such a well-written write on a bad breakup. The aftermath of a toxic relationship can bring much devastation; however, time heals all wounds. This what I got from reading your poem. Well done. PS, It’s good to see you posting again. Have a wonderful evening:-) Alexis
