No Longer There

I am no longer
The gentle breeze blowing through your hair
Nor the answer to your prayer
I am no longer there

I am no longer
The whisper guiding you through the dark
Nor your heart’s igniting spark
I am no longer there

I am no longer there, you see
After all that’s been said and done to me
I am no longer there
Guiding you with care

I am no longer
The song ringing through your soul
Nor the one to patch your holes
I am no longer there

I am no longer
The reason you are alive
Nor the love from which you thrive
I am no longer there

I am no longer there, you see
After all that’s been said and done to me
I am no longer there
No longer there

    Short, simple, to the point. I like this poem a lot. It shows your scars without bearing them and waiting for you to be torn again. What a wonderful insight. The rhyme was okay, there are times I thought it was a little pushed, but who cares. This poem was great regardless.

    Great

    This is a great poem. I kinda sounds like a song but its a great poem. I really liked it a lot. Great job. I loved how you repeated the words " I am no longer....." It was great.

    Bravo!

    I like this poem! Could and should be a song! Think about that. Very sad topic. Thoughts are concrete and well articulated. Well done! Thanks for the read. Return the favor?

    i am not really a fan of rhyming. however, this was pretty good still. i did feel the emotion. the only thing is that i think you could write the same emotion a little less cliche, you know? please, know i am just trying to make you to your full potential. this was very good. thank you for entering it!

    Sad. Beautiful, and sad. This seems to me as if it has potential to be transformed into a great breakup song. Thank you for this piece.
