Fade To None

Fade To None

A Poem by KWP
"

just some more crappy poetry

"

your chocolate eyes wept 

sweet tears upon my chest 


in the depths of our hearts

we knew this day would arrive 


this goodbye 

more suffocating 

than imagined 


in the space you left, I thought

I’d be able to breathe again 


but in your absence 

you  have vacuumed all of me 

into that space trailing behind 

three, four, five steps

and now 

an oceans distance 

away from you 


please release your unintentional 

stranglehold 


why did we ever allow ourselves 

to love so hard 

fight with such venom 

make up with divine pleasure 


different worlds

allowed the rift to widen


you know yourself 

we were only ever meant 

to remain 

side by side 

in eternity

except for the last verse, this wrote me and my first divorce, perfectly...the two friends sat and talked and cried about what happened to the lovers...
i really like the momentum of this...and quit calling your poetry Crappy...not by a long shot...
"to love so hard/ fight with such venom/ make up with divine pleasure"
exactly how it was.
