The Word of Beauty

The word of beauty I never thought about it
For me it always meant you
The word of trust I have never doubt it
For me it meant all the things you do
The word of nice and forgiveness it was the word I described you

After you had gone, what's the meaning of these words any more
Why would I use them, what can I use them for ?
Beauty, what that even means after you had gone ?
What's the meaning of forgiveness, when everything is wrong ?

All alone hiding in the shadows
Setting in every where gallows
Scratching my skin to get the poison out 
Maybe then angel of death will hear my shout
What's the meaning of love and care ?
 What's the meaning of that when I've no one to share ?

You were my soul mate how can I get another when I can't forget you ?
I've tried so hard, but I'm helpless no matter what I do
No one can forget his heart or forget to breathe air
If it's not you, then to whom I should give my love and care ?
They're trying to convince me to forget you and to move on
They don't know that there's nothing left to give, every thing died when you had gone

A deeply emotional poem Dalia, Hi by the way. So sadly it flows through from the start to the finish. I lost someone very close to me and it took over thirty years for me too allow myself to Love again. I am actually glad it took so long for love to come into my life again. Never give up on Love for Love shall not give up on you. It is strange how one can get such beauty into such a sad write. This is excellent, as i always expect from you Dalia. Hugs....Vlad. A 7 and a definite fave.

Thank you very much my dear for your supportive comment it means so much for me , I didn't gave up on love cause I know it is the core of this life , and it comes in different forms , shapes and ways , I feel that faith and love ain't that different and I believe they come from the same place as a human can love himself , can love a dear one and can love God as he can have faith in himself , faith in a dear person and faith in God, once again thank you very much my dear , I'm honored by your lovely visit , hugs / / :)

This poem pulsates with the pain that accompanies a great loss. Virtually every line addresses that condition, usually by asking questions to which there are no happy answers. I sincerely like this poem: It's honest and realistic, and it speaks to our vulnerabilities as mortals.
