Floating along on the Sea of Life
all is not as it seems
Their love once so strong, now faded
each going their own way
A stolen kiss, a lover's hug
are now sadly just distant memories

Good take on the prompt, I can see why this won an honorable mention. Nice. It's so sad when love ends and all we have are memories, and this captures that sadness very well.

This is a beautifully sad poem... I really like the way that you took the prompt... and this is the kind of poem that makes you want to read it again and again... it certainly made me curious about these people and what happened
thank you for entering this contest!
Keep writing
