Noise of Lost Affection

poignant

“Noise of Lost Affection”

 

 Heavy is the heart, burdened within,
 Each day strolls by, as memories creep in.
 All fleeting moments now tainted in black,
 Refined nostalgia, treasures we lack.
 Today, life reflects what we used to be.

 Bittersweet moments flash by, as I
 Realize the void of a life without you.
 Echoes of your sweet soprano voice,
 A melody that brings me endless joy.
 Keeps on ringing, a noise of affection.

 

Author's Note

First time using the acrostic form,
your critiques are well embraced.

You have captured well how yearning for that person who is gone away feels. Lines evocate the pangs of reliving just with their memories ,few bittersweet ones but without that friend life feels void. Good share dear Tumi

Nicely penned! Memories are really strange don't know what kind of emotions it could bring with its arrival.

A wonderful acrostic poem so finely inked. Yes, the memories of yesterday become the shadows of today when we miss someone so very special from our lives. Nobody else can fill that void and you have captured the feeling superbly. Remembering her voice brings comfort and great joy. A beautiful tribute to a dear friend, finely inked and so lovingly expressed. Thank you for sharing, Tumi...

sooner or later the nostalgia will become refined and priceless like good china.
This reminds me of a dear friend I lost back in 1984...sweet soprano voice, the noise of affection...
a beautiful noise she was.
