I cried heart wrenching tears
Having watched you slip away,
Far into a place where light plays
Beyond almost everywhere I can reach
Days pass lost in an endless maze,
Formed of deep emotions dazed,
Dreaming my memories of you,
Watching you dance, dancing true.
In our dance together,
In love so deep forever,
The moment you said I do
And all the moments since through.
Than the time comes and I awake,
My heart feels that cold ache
And reality again intrudes
With the knowledge I knew.
So here I gaze lost in space,
Trying to find a way to put in place,
The sharp hard shards of a heart
While I sit here in the dark.

I grasp my heart and feel the ache. Such a beautiful write with powerful words filled with such emotions.
-
Judged-ola!
Aww this is such a sweet write! -
Positive: great plot and idea's and story told
Negative: rhyming was off and a bit cheesy and the writing was hard to read, the rhyming to me really took away from the story becuase my heart did not get attached to it
BUT
thanks for entering -
