Once mine but gone forever..

by The Fallen Angel   Feb 25, 2022


Silence spoke so intensely,
when words took no form;
Your memories became
a sentiment,
when you had left
me, all alone.
I was shattered to pieces,
like I could never be
Put together as whole;
I lost bits of me in places,
where I searched for you;
You became a seamless shade,
in the rays of this scorching sun,
and I burned myself to ashes
searching for you;
But you were not to be found.
I thought time could heal
the void in my heart,
so I let the darkness in,
but it filled my soul,
Captivating me;
Yet I searched for you,
in the full moon sky,
and so I froze to a statue,
stuck in the realms
of your memories;
But you were not to be found.
My tears fall short,
though I was ready
to explode;
My heart has been forsaken,
and I am left alone,
drowning in the ocean
of empty desires;
Yet I searched for you,
But you were not to be found.
You were once mine, but
you are now forever gone.

    "You became a seamless shade,
    in the rays of this scorching sun,
    and I burned myself to ashes
    searching for you"

    - These are my favorite lines. Your emotion pours out in your verses and really highlights the loss of someone, how their absence can have such a great effect.

    There were a few parts where I thought adding an article or pronoun might help?
    "and so I froze to statue," ---> "and so I froze to a statue,"
    or even "and so I froze like a statue"

    and
    "My heart has been forsaken,
    and am left alone," ---> adding an "I" so "and I am left alone"

    Enjoyed reading!
