The Way The Heart Dies

A twist on what was thought to be a lie

Falling...
Falling like the rain of tears through her fingertips.
she pressed her hands tight across her cheek.
the nights will be black now.
Falling like the sinking feeling of registered regret.
she touched the fading taste of loves last kiss.
the days will be cold now.
Falling like the drops of blood from her angered lash.
she held the secrets of her lost trust deeply.
the years will be silent now.
Falling like the last drips of the i.v. in the arm.
she saw the light that burned like a flame in hell.
the eternal will be agony now.
-She loved him to death-

It's a great piece, that starts off nicely with the falling...to portrays the pain of love's loss. Great read, enjoyed very much. Also want to say thank you for taking the time too to reading mine! Very much appreciated!

this reminds me of a smashing pumpkins song called crestfallen. Im not sure why exactly, but maybe you'll get it if you have heard the song lol. Another great poem even though it is sad.

If read as how I intended when writing it ...its supposed to read that the woman had killed her lover the line ". Falling like the last drips of the i.v. in the arm." Is meant to refer to a lethal injection ...thanks for reading I really appreciate it

you're welcome. And it is still sad, regardless of who death comes to visit. For any love to end in death before naturally succumbing to it is a tragedy. Can't say I haven't had a vision or two on the contrary, but hey ;-)

This is beautiful, in a melancholy way.
