I MISS YOU

I MISS YOU!

Whatever happened, I'm not the one,
I guessed from silence, breach of trust,
I guessed from dumbness of my mind
That days I spent with you are past.

Whatever happened, I guessed it right,
I knew from stillness in my heart,
From senses dulled and void in mind
That days I spent with you are past.

Whatever happened, I know not much,
Just breach of trust like shattered glass.
Should there be love, another chance?!
Those days I spent with you are past.

Whatever happened, ended thus,
Romantic tale of love, its page finale,
No sequence meant, end of romance,
Love that was nice belongs to past.

Whatever happened, I know this much
That grass is withered, sky's overcast,
Just poignant memories and void in mind
It is this much that’s left to me from past.

About this poem:

We can't wave away past love as if nothing happened. Poignant memories keep gnawing at our heart. It remains for us to hope we can survive yet another blow with dignity.

It is so sad when love leaves and all we are left with is memories. A beautiful write that I can really relate to.

Thank you, my dear poets, for your appreciation. I guess this is an ordeal we all have to go through at one point or another, life is ups and downs ... it has always been. Perhaps what is needed is to voice whatever troubles ... whatever happens to us - the louder the better.

Hi, marikia,
Love that was nice belongs to past... While we and love's possibilities belong to NOW! Should there be love, another chance?! The newness of the future awaits the poet's design.

I am honestly and truly touched by this writing,if only we could turn back the clouds or tables of time,each moment would have been more dearer and held onto....nicely written

Hi Marikia

This is one of your finest writes, it is poignant without being mawkish. The rhetorical questions you pose strike just the right note.

I enjoyed the read

Reminds me of some past loves lost, though I have been fortunate that it hasn't been that way for awhile. I assume Georgia is by Russia, not Georgia in the United States where I am from. Nice write!

Sometimes memories are all we have to cling to and heartaches the friends we talk to,but we should try our utmost to put it behind us,we can keep them as souvenirs.We do miss the sweet moments spent with them even though it ended painfully.Maybe someone more deserving will come your way.God bless your gentle heart.
