Endings

Endings

He put his arms around her, and held her so, so near
His hands were moist and trembling, he couldn't hide his fear
His mind knew it was over, was his Heart that couldn't see
Her love had gone, couldn't carry on, the end of she and he
They'd been so far together, on a white horse in the sky
Riding through those clouds of love, they went so very high
But now he was like stranger, the love had left her eyes
She said goodbye, as she fell, falling through those skies
He gave her one last kiss, he knew it was the last
Then walked away and she became a figment of his past..

    Very powerful and emotion filled. I guess we would all rather end a relationship than it being ended for us so we hold out hope.

    The couplet of this poem is brilliant - it really packs an emotional punch. Well done Peter and all the best,

      Many thanks Ben for your comment.

      As they say, 'it is better to have loved and lost, than not to of loved at all', but when this happens in life though, you wish to God that the opposite was true.
      Glad you liked it.

    This is really good Peter, so simple yet a great captivating piece, it flows really well thanks to your unforced rhyming, tinged with sadness but emotionally charged.
