Empty Embrace

My heart aches, as I sit here
Wishing you were, within the grasp
Of my Empty Embrace
I stare, At these empty arms
A tear at the brink
Of it's edge
Rolls gently down my face
I search for you
Within the endless
Corridors of my mind
Towards infinity
Searching for the taste
Once more
Of the softness of your lips
I once knew
When I was
So deeply in love with you
Please, I beg of you
On bending knees
Don't allow my memories
Of your loveliness
Fade like the ashes
Of a dying ember.

Heartfelt and moving, beautiful even in its pain.

William, a loss of a love, is forever sad, but the discovery of a new one is equally as joyful.
Awesome write William.

Extremely sad and heartfelt write, William. I think far too often in life many of us have experienced a love that faded - like a dying ember.

Well done, my friend.

sometimes only the ashes of memories is all that's left ... we must try with all our hearts to prevent this from occuring by keeping the amber glowing within out eyes ...

Sentimental poem, longing, loneliness, torturing memories, loss...touching on the most basic need in all of us.

Terrific writing, William!
