losing my faith

from 'The Book of Bloom and Fading'

poor relief

hard to believe

 

losing my face

losing my faith

 

there's no hope

in my empty heart

 

the door is closed

the windows are dark

 

that has been

nobody's land, my dear

nobody's heart ever since

Author's Note

the poem was written two years ago. besides, that is
not my story: my lyric characters so often make me speak.

Reviews

[Wendy Seames Garner]

It is a sad place you have found yourself in. If you look very, very hard, there is a door just waiting to be opened.

[J. J. Nightingale]

THIS SPEAKS OF LOSS .. AND A NEED TO BE FILLED ...

BEAUTIFULLY SAD ..

JASMINE .. ..

[Belle]

This piece with serious and gloomy tone
just created me a melancholic mood, I sigh!

On the contrary, I felt the twist here:
the door is closed
the windows are dark

symbols used in these two lines
left my mind a bit of hope.

I'd love to read more from you...

Piercing and beautifully written.

[Marie]

A lovely sad poem.
