Alas

Love has gone

Alas, there is no trace of the sun and
I can no longer see
Nor the sun nor the light nor your face
You vanished into thin air

Alas, our music is not playing and
I can no longer hear
Nor the notes nor the melody nor the sounds
You have turned away

Alas, your hand does not come close and
I can no longer feel
Nor your caresses nor the warmth of your body
Because you have ceased to love me

Being Me

These words will resonate with many. They are words so clearly written in hurt. They are stark and honest making a brilliant poem x

So much heartache. I loved your use of the word Alas at the start of the stanzas. Gave the piece a nice structure and added to the sense of feeling heart broken. Pinned 📌
