MY LIGHT

You stole the light from my soul, when you left

But I had no way to prevent, or report your theft

You left me behind all alone, groping in the dark

Searching the ashes blindly, for some sort of spark

 

I fell into a deep, never ending abyss

Don’t know how long, I existed like this

Until that scar, on my heart fell off

It’s only then I knew, I could once more love

 

Now I endlessly search, for a cinder or glowing ember

To relight my soul, like those days I remember

But with every spark that I’ve chosen, to my light renew                                     

It only fades and dies, with each memory, of you

This was a really nice poem.

This was a really nice poem. It was very cliched, but it was still written well. I especially like the last line on the last stanza, it really connected with me. Good job!
