Taken from Me

Taken from Me

A Poem by Brandon M. Whittaker
"

I was sick of working for the day so I took a break and went to my rack, pulled out a notebook and scribbled down some poems...here's one of them.

"

Hair soft as silk, a mane of sheer divinity

Her eyes catch and hold, drowning me in the abyss of their beauty.

Her voice is like song, gorgeously carrying a melody of angelic causality

A body lithe and slender, graceful and captivating...Perfect.

Such beauty was mine to hold, until she was torn away from me.

My arms fall to my sides, unable to reach for her as she slips further and further away

Tears fall from blue orbs of vision, stinging and blinding.

She fades away completely, leaving me to brave the dark alone

She was taken from me

And my heart has shattered

My soul erodes away

The tears dry themselves out

All that's left are rasping sobs

And the disturbing darkness of lonliness.

I don't know why the text editor decided to put spaces between each freaking line...but it did...

I haven't been on WritersCafe in a while so I seen I had a read request I was like yay.. : ) I haven't read your work in a while. I really love this. You really put an image in my mind because your so detailed in your writings. I think we all have that time in our lives where someone has slipped from our fingers or left us alone. I know I have & it leaves me in a world of hurt, but also in a whirl wind of insperation. I don't know what's up with text editor either it never does what I want with my writings, but good write!!!!
