Something Is Missing

Like a piece of a puzzle and the twist of fate
seemingly deceptive charm sets flames in her heart
gazed glory she could not resist
sweet, amber feeling of something missing
it is hidden, enchanted from the world of true devotion.

She looked around, seen the world of darkness and defeat
no body to console, no one to hold,
only emptiness on this lonely road
she traveled the distance to the moon and back 
just to find that something missing inside her heart.

She wished she could chew 
the bitter taste of betrayal 
of the one who said he’ll be there
but deserted the heart that loves 
and embraces the soul that hates

Lovely face of an angel lighted up her way 
to find that something she had lost
in this world of solitary and dismay
she has nothing to boast.

Plain of hardships in the valley of untruthfulness
the generosity of a love blossoms
contemplate the genuine kindness of the spirit that cares 
to dare the sorrows and grieves

She wondered what is missing.
She wondered why emptiness lingered inside of her
invading her inner point 
with fumes of delusions and false hopes
cutting happiness to depart from her veins, and so she bled. 

What life has to offer; 
for the one who laugh 
while tears rolling down her cheeks?
A bundle of unchained affection of her defenseless being
covers enormous part of her lonely heart 

Making it vulnerable even to a streaming sun light 
pulled on by a carriage of fears 
from the past of undefined illusions.
perfectly molded by the rivers of valiant confessions, 
the predicament of her life time.

Mirror of a dark past flowed like a stream 
towards the sea of unforgettable heartaches 
she swayed her way 
like a log floating on the elusive truth
in the myth of the present reality.

And what is this emptiness she’s feeling?
The longing of a warm touch of an icebreaker;
or a quite whisper of a stranger?
In the heart of a lone fighter,
something is missing.

Maria,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@"
