He knew her as nothing

Missing image
soliloquies whispered
in errant drops of tears

her sighs so delicate

aches ripped tenderly
from empty arms

and shudders of despair
dance in despondent rhythm

it was all for nothing....

    Deep, intense and I love this poem that you've written. I used to think the same thing about so many things in my life, that it was all for nothing.. that's how life felt to me then, and I thought that things would never change. but alas they did and my perspective on things have changed.. but I still have days that aI feel like this..
    this poem has a deeper side to it, one that I may have not experienced before. the imagery is fanastic and vivid.. to read this and ponder a bit, the emotional piece is heart wrenching and very intensly personalized for me anyway. You have a gift to be able to draw the reader into your world and bring them with you along a journey, no matter how painful it is or not.

    Fantastic poem

    Good luck

    I often wonder. Do we really understand our humam nature. r is there just a need to possess. And then, not really seeing, we become part nothing to others. Just thoughts I gathered from your fine write.
