Frozen waters of silence- broken

Moonlight streaming through the open window
Reflecting off a lonely mirror
Illuminating the outline of your face

Although blinded in darkness,
Your cold eyes still hold mine
An icy glare sending chills
Creeping throughout me

Fearful of betrayal you say nothing
Have I a heart black as a dying rose?
Silent questions echo off dark walls

The power of temptation- candy to a child
Swayed from you , I have not
A touch of my hand on yours- my innocence..

Flinching away from the truth
My touch ice to your fire

-Defeat-
...Total silence...

Stiletto heels to floor
Breaking the quiet
Noise ripples through the air to my ear

I hear you walk away
One last time

I wasn't quite sure what this would become but It is now a rather chilling story of love lost.

I'm not sure of the gender of the writer.. could be either.

I am coming back from a very long poetry break - keep that in mind perhaps

Or perhaps my new and improved style has already captured your heart

I kinda like this one

      The speaker has been accused of cheating and the girl doesn't want to hear the truth- and so she leaves.

    Wow... really powerful write, I love it! The way you used punctuation was interesting, and not overdone as the style frequently is. The imagery throughout is great, and the ending poignant. Thanks for the entry!!!!

            Hun... confidence comes from with-in and i could say all the best about you, But untill you can search deep down and find your sparkle you will never be truly confident.

    reflecting off a lonley mirror
    this line seems so alone as if the image is so unseen, and then again here
    silent questions echo off dark walls
    the unseen voice, answers,
    a dark read and also a powerful imbalance of a lost love nice steady flow
    well done

    Yes...the pain in love is the most important truth of our life which never allow us to breathe even..and that makes us uncomfortable all the time..well thought poetry...

    This is filled with some very good imagery. The first falter I had here, was with your repetition of cold in the second stanza. Over all, this was pretty good. I feel that you are growing as an artist. I expect that you will get even better in not very much longer. Thanks so much for the read.

    Awesome! ^_^

    With those prompts, I'd say that you aced your poetic task. Your imagery is beautiful...I mean, seriously, you couldn't have painted a more vivid picture or written a piece to make me think harder about lover's conflict. Great word choices, too...you know I'm a guy that's all for vocabulary and poetic metaphors/similes, and you've got some good ones in here (illuminating, "black as a dying rose" [powerful statement, btw], "my touch ice to your fire"...there's plenty of examples).

    So, all in all, great job! Hope to see more from you in the future. ^_^
