No Longer

 

   Stormy clouds arrest my mind,

   churning memories asunder

   Your light faded fast my love

   The spell you placed me under

 

   On stone I kneel in somber tone

   reflecting all your lies

   Tarnished love with ebony,

   my soiled spirit cries

 

   Sands seconds slowly trickle through

   No longer will I think of you!

    Have to agree with Moluv. Im a big fan of your rhyming pieces, (not that I don't absolutely love everything else you've ever written ) they flow beautifully, never seeming the least bit forced and always dripping with vivid imagery and fresh ideas. another fabulous silver from you!!!

  • yup takes time to get over a person and then you just move on and pretty much forget bout them. well expressed. well done on the silver deserved it.

    I liked the way the poem decended into into sorrow, then emotion hardened and denied the pain denied the sorrow, it shows strength of character.....Great poem
