Aftermath

What is left but loneliness?

 

Aftermath

by jack

 

 

The silent sun

was bright this day,

my mind

was in a fog

 

Its brilliant light upon the world

did send

 

So beautiful

this morning light,

but deep

inside my heart

 

The pain of losing love

comes once again

 

I did the best

that I could do,

though once again

I see

 

I’m left to cry these tears of

constant fall

 

This circle of

disparity,

I seem to

wander in

 

Does follow me now

everywhere I go

 

My eyes are open,

I can’t see

As no one is

around

 

I’ve no direction on this

followed path

 

Crumbling,

my world it does

The loudest awful

sound

 

Now here I stand within its

aftermath

I had to read this more than once because the format isn't something with which I am familiar...but once I recognized the flow of the piece, I got into the rhythm of the thing and it flew off my tongue. Superior write.

[Jack...]

Thank you so much Kimmer, I just thought I'd try and break out of the ordinary a little bit. I am happy you enjoyed it and extremely happy you left such a nice review.

The pain, hopelessness and despair are so heartfelt. You have a way of stirring emotions through your words.

Very sad and painful, the most terrifying pain is the loneliness

[Jack...]

Indeed Nick you are correct. Thank you so much.

[Carolann Dowsett]

So full of sadness Jack and echoing with the despair of losing what could have been. Loneliness can be a terrible burden to bear. A beautiful heartfelt write.

[Jack...]

[Jack...]

A well spoken metaphor for a certain mood shape here Jack,

"I’ve no direction on this
followed path"

I guess you have, when you listen clearly to that musical heartbeat of yours :)
It shall always be the compass of life.

Beautiful....
