Sotto Poet Poet Sonnet

Notes About The Poem

Verse and Proverb

My mistake
every word you make
such as frosty shards
smacked me hard.

A truth I would never believe
I had to turn around and leave
This whole time I've been blind
never reacting to what's behind.

The truth is, I will never know
when feelings overflow
Your lies continue to deceive
because it's acerb to believe.

wanting for what I won't ever get
Right now, I reckon it's truly set
My chest is pounding with severe chest pain
You left me and made me uneasy again.
 
Nothing perishes ever
since life exists wherever.

Bill Baker September 23, 2022 at 2:37 PM Let me explain further, what may appear to be a very insensitive comment to your poem. Again, in my humble opinion, from my own experience of the loss of what I thought to be Love. I was near suicidal after my first wife of nine years left me and what our friends at church and everyone we knew thought was a perfect marriage, without any explanation. It took a deep look into the difference between Love and preceived love for me to survive. my comment reflects thoughts from that experience. P.S. Soup mail Sotto Poet September 24, 2022 at 7:08 AM Thank you so much for the thoughtful comments that you have provided, dear friend, Bill. There is nothing in them that can be construed as negative. Our lives are fraught with difficulties, particularly when we consider matters of love and returned love as it is viewed. Thanks for expressing your opinions, offering my best regards.

Bill Baker September 23, 2022 at 2:12 PM The greatest pain is in the lessons not learned from the mistakes we make when exploring the experiences of love, or our inadequate understand of the feeling, emotion, or experience. Love doesn't hurt, but the illusion of it can be excruciating, while the loss of it may be impossible. Most of our lost love experiences are most painful because we are imperfect and not as wise and understanding in matters of Love as we think. (in my humble opinion). Thanks for sharing, Bill
