Many loves
She did find
Ever existing in
The hopeless kind
Hearts scattered
Far and wide
None of them ever
By her side
Fond remembrances
Of what couldn’t be
Heart still breaking
Wanting free
Empty reflections
Left in the mirror
Hidden behind
One final tear

I love this. I don’t know how to explain the feeling it gives me. All your poems give an emotion to me, M. Each one is different… 🙂

Thank you KK, I can’t even quite explain where they come from most days. The words are just sort of there, pooling at an invisible door, and eventually those words just burst through, tumbling out on the other side. And that’s how they often end up here. 😉

Oh Michelle, your last stanza was superb.

Hidden behind
One final tear”
