Left to Decipher

In a second, something can happen, and you don't even know why...

 

Left to Decipher

My eyes are livid to my surrounding

Pondered, trying to decipher the scenes in front

Because they fly so fast

As an airplane in voyage

Trying to get in touch with their destiny

But as I gaze up above

I don’t know who they are

Or where they’re going

Because in a blink of my eye, it’s vanished

Left as fast as it came

 

It’s sad I have to say the same for us

You came into my heart

But never left is the only disparity

The experience was here

Alluring me for more

You, inviting me for more

But that’s the element I can’t decode

You told me you would be here

But left just as you said

I love you.

 

Leaving me to make sense of the swift occurrence……

Deeply effective; your poem illucidates the ethereal reality of fondness, love and romance. As you have touched upon, feelings do not fly away with love lost. They remain, a life unto themselves.

Nice poem...

and the great flow, even though it is free verse

Your poem is personal yet it describes a classic situation between men and women. I think you could add more to the feeling of being left behind and how your trust has been misplaced if you wanted to expand the theme. Another option is to eliminate the comparision to a fly by and try to make it more powerful with stronger expressions of raw emotion. It is good the way it is. I like the feel of innocence.
