Solitude By the Reverie

the tiniest sliver of a moon hangs distant yet its faded heart long gone it too abandons me tonight i buried you today how can i face returning to an empty home though somehow i’ll have to come to terms but this night’s for tears freeflowing and unmedicated throbbing ache left raw for release of what’s built up inside the hurt the bitterness the anger let go of what i can deep down to the roots of my solitude haunting gregorian chants fill my head till finally i’m intoxicated on visions of nostalgia and reverie Submitted on June 3, 2018 for contest FREE VERSE ONLY - PICK A THEME sponsored by LAURA LOO - RANKED 1ST
