Bittersweet Longing

Have you ever felt the bittersweet moment
After the end of a novel you cherished,
A song that touched your soul,
A film that moved you to tears?

All of your emotions are a paradox
Hopeful in your hopelessness
And mournful of your bliss
Heartbreak in many confusing words

Once you have wept for the sorrow of joy
Only then will you understand
Every time I look at your face
This is the bittersweet longing I feel for you

Author notes

Option 1.

And since I know he'll never see this, I dedicate this poem to Chris Hull, my partial inspiration to this work.

    This is so cute. ^_^ It's also sad... It's bittersweet just like the title and what it describes. I enjoyed it a lot. Thank you for your entry. Good luck. :]

    Nice job, but not quite what I'm looking for so I'm afraid I will have to remove it. Sorry. I do hope you enter my next contest though.
    Love always,

    A Beautiful Write.

    "All of your emotions are a paradox
    Hopeful in your hopelessness
    And mournful of your bliss
    Heartbreak in many confusing words"
