Description
I gaze at the heavens but with unseeing eyes Hoping to find some solace
Some salve to soothe the pain Among the stars and the skies
Love Once so warm and forgiving
Has now turned so demanding Forsaken by one who has cared the most
Each day starts in a stupor Blank looks arouse curiosity
How the heart yearns for just a sweet Hello From the phone that
Remains unrelentingly silent
The night’s morose blanket Dark dense and lonely
Trying to smother the heart’s turmoil But giving up completely
Life must go on so they say Friends offer comfort to pass the day
Working with a frenzy distracting the mind To the shattered heart however
There’s no such thing as mind over matter
Food turns to ashes in the mouth The body doesn’t seem to care
All that are needed is nicotine to sustain And alcohol to dull the pain
The seasons may come and go Can such love become
A distant memory Tell that to the mind it may agree
The heart’s anguish tell another story
This elegy has to end Having unleashed tears that blind
If I were to write my epitaph here and now
Herein lies a woman who loved and lost And who died with a broken heart.
Foreword
I'm not a noob when it comes to composing fictions. I began writing novels/poetry when I was in high school. and back in college I used to be the editor-in-chief of our University paper.this is my first fiction about Khuntoria, well this is quite different from the usual happily-ever-after- love story, this one has the sad/melancholic theme. I hope you all had a little time to spare on this fic.thank you :D
