My  lost love

My lost love

A Poem by Count Humilus
"

Silence of me

"

 Lives interwine with music playing in the backround to match their mood

We slept in motels

We slept in hotels

We slept in bed and breakfasts

We used our time so beautifully

Each inconvenience of get away

An excuse to sleep closer I think

Kicking out the tucked in bed sheet

Referencing your body for pleasure

Leaving that frame face down

Eventually in a box with some letters as well

We slept close once

Close like it would last forever

Rubbing my feet to get sleepy

Smiles and sighs of nostalgia

But love,

You walked out

I gave you the benefit of the doubt twice prior

Don’t you see my girl

You’ve ruined it

How can I be a man if I forget what you did

How can I take you back

If I don’t hold it over your head when you get out of your line

And how can I hold anything over your head

You’re my equal

My bestfriend

I loved you

I saw what you would do if things got bad

I let you go

I let you go with my own words said to me!

Ironic heartbreak

At least there’s a twist enough to snap my mind

Break that chipped heart right in two

It’ll be a while this time

Quite a while the snow lets me know

There is a deep beauty in the sadness of your words...I feel very unresolved by the ending. I like that it is an open ended kind of closure...leaves the reader desiring so much all at once...

This is so beautiful it wonderfully describes the beauty of love and without warning introduces heartache into the picture, just like life.

How lovely, but with such sad sentiments of loss and longing.........
Your write is well versed, and I love the way you place at the end how the snow will let you know.......
snow an indicator of the cold, rejection, and loss!....your love lost after so much giving and sharing!!
Well done!!
