Tears emcompass a pallid face

Memories of amorous love cry out in the

slumber of dreams

Hands out stretch only to grasp thin air

Lost inside herself she searchs for him

 

Moonlight visions summon the love she holds

A garrote constrains her soul,

suffocating the cup of comfort once felt

Symbols of their love paves the way to him

 

Visual modality traverses her deeper into

the abyssal darkness

Perceptual desire strengthens sleep

Words spoken long ago vibrates the

stillness of slumber

Time with him has expired

 

The need for him detonates a bittersweet moment

Pain seethes her cleaveage as her eyes flutter open

A shudder of weakness contorts her face

If only she would die before she wakes

In the slumber of dreams she would be

cushion in his love forever

Nicely done. Very romantic and full of longing, sounds like what we go through at least once or perhaps twice in our lifetimes.

A heart-wrenching write. The loss of love can be so difficult to snap out of sometimes. You penned the emotion well. Keep up the good work. :)
