How rejection may feel.

Words of heartfelt emotions evaporate like morning dew at sunrise.
Were they all in vain, drifting towards a slow and embittering demise?
The love that traversed time and space awakened senses now departed.
All that remains a heart once whole but now completely shattered.

Drained of all emotion I sought the solitude that only death can give.
Why need to roam these paths I feel no purpose, reasons left to live.
Life was but a journey of sorrow with a scattering of fervent desire.
Torn away in a moment and discarded as scorched ashes from a fire.

I can’t go on, this lonely road holds but nought cold emptiness and pain.
All feelings spent in tireless search for loves embrace that never came
Farewell this world no pity shown just one more step then I’ll be home.
And with that dawn maybe a new horizon I’ll walk towards but not alone.

How would anyone be able to express in words exactly how it would feel? Though many have experienced that emotion I have no doubt but as yet I haven't.
From your comment I feel you may have my friend, though I sincerely hope you've survived.

Thank God--you did NOT succumb to such feelings--but stuck around-for now you have--A Second Chance.
Yet Another Good Poem.
Bev.
