Tear stained eyes flow across denial
Prayers seek instantaneous resolve
Wills waiver as pain becomes numb
Ludicrious thoughts race through congestion
Wishing for eternal sleep...
Aromas of stale beer and cigarettes mingled with sweat
Certificate of Marriage screaming " I do"
Mind, body and soul crumpled and broken
Symptoms of love gone wrong...

Ouch! Painful write Zenith. Ofcourse it's not one that many can't bond with.
Powerful statement in few words.

Extremely Powerful poem, Zenith, about an extremely heartwrenching topic for many.

And again it amazes me that so many on AD post poems on similar topics on the same day.
