THE NIGHT MY HEART DIED
Last night, i dropped
numb on the floor.
My body laid pale,
movements were no more.
The silence of stillness
as the swift wind blows,
Clothed the night,
with loneliness as it goes..
And as darkness filled
that vast empty room,
thus triggered a memory
which came out of the gloom
A memory of two souls
that vowed to forever,
A memory of a love,
pure and stronger than ever...
But the memory broke to pieces
when lightning cut through...
Like the day it all ended,
the day I lost you.
last night was the night,
I couldnt run nor hide...
LAst night was the night,
This heart of mine died...

Good poetry, hoodedboi. Did you write it? Is it for real? They say poetry always reflects the thoughts and experiences of the poet... Good poetry though. Next time you write I hope it's not about love lost but love found...

Thanks, yup this is my original poem... I wrote it a few years back, and yes it reflected the thoughts when i was going through a tough time back then. Yeah, i promise I'll try and write another one. Thanks again!

Ok so this pome was nice. It reminded me of a new age Romeo and Juliet.
The vibe started off slow and built up. I could really see the pain felt.

How sad. Nice poem. My favorite lines were, And as darkness filled that vast empty room, thus triggered a memory which came out of the gloom. A memory of two souls that vowed to forever... it sounds like a residual haunting of a dark bedroom and when lightening flashes they disappear. I enjoyed the red, thanks for sharing.
