Love's Echo

After the loved one departs, his voice still echoes in the heart.

Your voice in echo haunting me
Whisper words that resonate,
They call in dreams persistently
And speak of Love that Truth negates.

For you were gone before the morn
You stole the sunshine from my days,
Crushed my heart and left it worn
Where tears tormented me always..

If Sleep would come without a dream
Oh such comforting release!
The gentle Silence sings it seems
Of songs that drown your voice with ease.

Your echoed Love, please speak no more
Accord me rest and new tomorrows!
Mute that voice just like before
When my heart knew of no great sorrows.

What a beautiful and new way to express missing the one you love. I absolutely love your work. Keep it up!

[BLACK PRINCE]

This is a deeply touching poem.
The melancholy gives me shivers.

Thank you for reading and leaving a comment.

This is fresh and beautifully told , love the flow , a loved one that departs is invisible I guess and thats the hardest loss , the loss of the physical presence.

This is quite a cliche topic, but you did it in a way that managed to still make it a good write. I tip my hat to you for that! (well, I would if I hadn't lost my favorite hat..)
