The Death of Love

Folder: 
3. Nameless Enigma

It hurts

Like a void

Has taken over

The space where my

Heart should be



It burns

As if a hole

Has been formed

By ripping my heart

Away from my breast



It’s agony

Yet I am numb

And I can barely

Feel anything

That is going on



I’m empty

Inside myself

My body is as if

It is dead and all

The blood has dried



It’s gone

The happiness

That I once felt

Deep within my soul

Now is only space



I’m cold

Like a shell

Left out alone

To crack and whither

Until nothing is left



It’s done

What once was

And what will be

Always remembered

That’s you and me

I feel the loss and the pain in this piece. Well done.

If a poem like this one, makes the reader feel a special kind of pain, I believe it has done it's job. This one has.
