"Perfect Emptiness"

Standing by the window in the dark
Moonbeams seeps through the night
Coldness reached my eyes and heart
A milky glaze upon my face
Arms embrace this body cold as ice
Coldness of night


Dripping down window’ pain
Just to leave a trace of wetness behind
Nothing came close to the texture
And the deep taste… of this love that I feel
Hoping it could take away
All the pain of all those yesterdays
And praying I could overcome
My fear of my tomorrow’
Naked in the dark I stand… cold
Heart screaming out loud
Will this cycle ever end!
Depending on a love never meant
Now just fading away till the end
In sterile cold embrace


And perfect emptiness I stand
“Till death do us part”
The End

Well... I am probably not the right person to give advice. I also don't manage to find the person that is worth my love.
But Tinka - we should never give up hope. Let's keep on hoping and praying and looking around. How many men are on this earth? There should be Mr. Right for us somewhere.
Love

Dear Tinks,

So filled with heartache this write. Don't allow it to become empty Tinks, you have so much to offer and give. Sometimes in life situations are not perfect, but patience and perseverance make it all worth while.

warm hugs

Tinka, this poem is perfect. If it's not your single best poem to date, it is definitely one of the top, top. You reached in deep and pulled out a story, delivered in few words, that so many of us battle with on a daily basis, but are ill-equiped to communicate with such eloquence. See Tinka, I knew you would understand: you and I are both trapped in a block of ice.

Can you tell, I really liked this poem? LOL....~ Sara

As always Tink your work is like silk drifting down on a puff of a breeze, delicate and heartwarming but always with just the right amount of sad bittersweet memoried of what was or what could have been. Sweet....
