Darling

My darling,

My love,

Your beauty is startling

And your hand fits mine like a glove

 

I know we are young

But I know this is real

In the ladder of life you are a rung

And my heart no one can steal

 

You have me under lock and key

A willing prisoner in your heart

Your eyes are all I can see

And your soul is a work of art

 

A future with you is clear to picture 

Like a complete puzzle

With you I can let down my stricture

And my heart I can unmuzzle

 

My soul is untrapped

And my eyes are open

I still need to adapt

To this new life unspoken

    Retract and hide

    I've recently found myself back in my shell

    Pretending to be someone I'm not

    And I think I know why.

     

    I've pulled back from people 

    Only interacting with animals and strangers online

    Radio silence

    I'm opening my phone

    To nothing 

    No messages, no emails, no missed calls,

    All I'm getting is radio silence 

     

    The sinking feeling in my heart returned

    The one where you know something is wrong

  • Poetry

    By Bee.Lover

    It's dark out now.

    Stinging my eyes

    The tears come

    Pouring down

    Relentlessly.

    Still breathing 

    Still warm

    Yet dead 

    To me

    And me alone.

    Grief floods me

    Again 

    I'm drowning
