She Remembers

mystic clouds at night beneath an amber sun casts a lovely glow.. her face illuminated as tears freely fall she trembles.. ~as she remembers~ a sky of twinkling stars which once guided her way now dull, broken shards.. she falls to her knees as the tide edges closer cold and unforgiving.. his soft words once a safe cocoon now strife with contempt ~she sadly remembers~ she hugs herself tightly rocking and wondering where it all went wrong.. her heart is hurt his loving friendship touched her like no other.. ~she tearfully remembers~ she opened herself up with his gentle guidance as best as she knew how.. his kindness moved her with truth and with faith for happiness she felt.. ~she fondly remembers~ she knows her truth as he feels his the gift of his friendship.. ~she will always remember~

The crush of heartbreak is so apparent in this emotive piece Lynn. I love the repetitive lines slightly changing, impractical. Wonderfully composed! 7 ; )

Impactful.... . Not impractical....Kindle always changes my words and it is so annoying. Sorry.

You always bare your soul in your writing or make us at least feel like the person in the poem. That is the power of your poetry, dear.

Oh Lynn. Good Morning. I have no words for this. This is more than marvelous. Such expression. The emotive factor is present. Everything is poetically right within this entry. Honestly. I so enjoyed reading it. It was an honor. Have a wonderful day. Well done in its entirety. PS you so appropriately utilized the repetition. Well executed

Hi Lynn, this is a truly wonderful write.The emotions are real and therefore this reader feels the pain in the words. Your poetry is a journey through emotions. Memories, the home of sorrow and joy. I do love the way you write Lynn. This is a seven and has to go into my faves. Hugs....Mike. XX

Such a lovely and heartfelt poem, Lynn. Memories such as these are there for keeps; they are too strong and emotional to fade away. I like how you broke up the poem into progressive sections. #7+ Warm regards // paul

Very well written Lynn, a touching write. I like the use of title lines that sets off each section. The emotions are tactile, I can feel them, makes me wonder what happened between them.
