Silently Fading

by Silent Voice and Tender Heart   Jun 1, 2008


My heart was once a flutter of tiny butterflies.
Our love was what brought brightness to my life.
My happiness could light the night sky.

Now my heart is as cold as ice.
Our love is standing rock still.
My happiness is silently fading.

    Often done, but what made this one stand out was the gentle ending.

    "My heart was once a flutter of tiny butterflies."
    This feels like an insecure start: 'flutter' and 'tiny' feel like insecure words. It's not necessarily bad, just uncommon.

    "Our love was what brought brightness to my life.
    My happiness could light the night sky."
    Hopeful and vey bold, incontrast to the weak beginning. Especially the last line, it feels like wild, joyous laughter.

    "My happiness is silently fading."
    Poignant. I don't know why; you can never explain magic. I just really like this line.

    Like how you compared before and now

    made the reader happy and hopeful
    then ended with hopelessness
    very sad, but well written

    Short, sweet and to the point. well, not really sweet, more painful. it was beautifully worded and flowed together brilliantly. a moving piece that definitely deserves a 5/5

    Keep Writing, lovely
