Due depart and so, desire
The rose does not befit the choir

Thank you Hilda for your kind words as always! Sometimes I find it's hard whether to end a poem after so few lines or challenge myself to keep going. This one, however, communicated clearly that 2 lines was all, enough had been said.

So poignant and restrained. The longing is potent in the brevity present here. Well-written, Devin. Be Blessed always, Hiba :)

I have an appreciation for poetry that is short but elicits the emotion of far more words. I thank you :) that was my hope for this piece.
