Her tears fall like rain
nourishing nothing
She is so tired from the taste of salt
And in the cold dark days of January
her arms are empty
When the winds sighed his name
She remembers she had a love,
A love that filled her dreams
Thoughts of him come knocking at her heart
She hears "I love you,I love you still"
But she cries in the shadow, the shadow of her broken heart
And while the winds sighed it's last goodbye
He became a silhouette in the corner of her mind
And the smell of dead love
She cries in the shadow
The shadow of her broken heart
While the wind sighed it's last goodbye
He became a silhouette in the corner of her mind
Please tell me what you think

Quite different from your nature poems, you don't write much about sadness, and yet you have done a good job with this one. The last line is very sad, but I like it a lot!
Nicely done Susan

Thank you for your lovely comment. I see we had similar thoughts about the prompt. I can feel the emptiness expressed and I liked the repetition of these lines:
'While the wind sighed it's last goodbye
He became a silhouette in the corner of her mind'
Well done. Good luck in the contest! :)
