She Contemplates...
So much pain she hides within,
She's numb to life and everything,
No joy you see upon her face,
Eyes so hollow, so out of place.
Why is it she cannot find,
Some pleasure, a little peace of mind,
Hurt within this lonely heart,
Where does it end, or start ?
The love that had once burnt so strong,
left her feeling that she'd done wrong,
Fears she hides within her soul,
A gaping wound, a mammoth hole.
Cries are silent and tears run wild,
Her heart which was deceived by guile,
Strange ideas she contemplates,
To leave behind these sad heartaches.

Lost Love can truly be earth and heart shattering.
I feel like a "terry" or a "bulldozer"...just want to go out there and destroy what ever gets in my way!!
Anything to break from this turmoil that became my life!!
Love Tinka
Loneliness of love gone wrong is truly heart-wrenching. Wouldn't it be great to possess the touch to heal every broken heart? One thing for sure, we would never be out of work. Beautiful and sad write.
Your poetry is superb friend! You are such an inspiration.
With love Chanti
