Though somewhat old, so goes this tale
of love not quenched- still raging strong
he held her heart for twenty years
to him only it did belong.
She yearned to hear his pleasant voice
but silence rang throughout each night
Such craving left her damaged; torn
though she fought hard, with all her might.
Then suddenly a ringing phone
broke silent grip that stole her song.
His answers to her brought relief...
yes, he is back; but for how long?

The man who left me 6 weeks pregnant... 21 years ago... is back. Not really sure what to feel, what to do, where to turn or what to think but these are the only words I could find within...

Very Good
Wow, it must have been a shock. Good write M even though it must have been tough sorting out your emotions whilst writing.

what a treat to see you writing again on here! A very heartfelt write. Your words speak of hesitation and indecision. Trust your heart. An excellent write.

Wow!
A lost love returning can stir up many emotions to include rage anger & the love you once felt all at the same time. I wish you well in this one my friend. Just pray for an answer.
The emotion your poured out in this one hooked me in right from the very beginning. Great job.
Thank you for sharing this with us * good luck my friend.

Well
This one was kind of a surprise, daughter, not that you're written a nice poem, but the subject of said poem. Very fascinating, and frightening too I think. Time is sometimes on our side and I expect time will tell in this case too. Will have to keep up with this and see how it turns out.

Tread lightly dear friend, you have walked this path before. Dreams and lost loves are illusive things, more smoke and cloud than substance. Sometimes, it's best to let them fade into the mist of memory.
