robert frost and broken hearts.


as winter sets upon the earth,
true loves kiss broke the curse,
cured the aweful numbed and broken heart,
enstilled a peaceful, beautiful calm,
for a while, the storm is gone.
dressed my heart in sparkling white,
pure as snow, again all is right.

only for a while though,
because this love is purest gold.
golden leaf will subside to leaf.
i, like eden, will sink to grief.
we'll both fall like dawn does to day,
love, so golden, can't ever stay.

Author notes

hmm.... the last stanza refers to nothing gold can stay by robert frost. originaly intended to be a lot more cheerful in the end, but it didn't work out like that. i'll rework the last stanza later i guess.

i want the truth from you even if it kills me.

    I plan to revise this poem: please leave constructive criticism!

  • i think that this is one of the best writes i have seen on here yet! i love the imagery. i think that even if you tried to make it a happy ending, it's impossible to do that with Nothing Gold Can Stay. it's of the sadest poems i know, yet it's so beautiful

    great write! props, and don't let anyone write you off for being young. i am 17.
