Reckless Abandonment

Reckless Abandonment

Reckless abandonment 
I taught you well 
To blanch my wanting heart 
Into the fires of hell

Where ashes speak of only failed dreams
That wrench apart what little light streams 

Diminished soul-
It aches to be renewed 
Brewed in cherished misspent youth
Love eludes a hidden truth 

Whistful memories force to remmenise 
The secrets of that perfect kiss 

Now sits upon the sidelines feeling spent 
The heart left fuelled -
With bitterness and resent

 Gwendoline raw emotions on display and for all the right reasons and flawlessly well written and presented.
And we've all been there, trying to move and wonder how did things come to this. That's bittersweet life and love for you.
And yeah things do improve steadily but one never truly forgets or forgives.
Full honours bestowed for your poem that hits it mark so poetically well and doesn't let go.
And thanks for writing and sharing.✨

I think the amount of support that you're receiving your work, simply speaks for itself, fantastic, although I had to point out;

Your wordplay and the soft, yet solid (I know that's an oxymoron) structure, is just so very powerful. Contest worthy? I think so!!

Hello Max XD 

Thank you for reading this one. When I read your words “but I have to point out” I gulped and thought I had made a boo boo 🙊 I was so relieved when I read on. Wow you put a big smile on my face. Gosh I actually feel pampered today. Everyone has been so blinking nice. It’ has been so lovely. Thank you for giving me your time and words of encouragement. I am planning to read more of yours very soon. I have enjoyed your work 

happy writing 😊🌻
