NEVER AGAIN TO LOVE

by desleeds   Aug 25, 2009


Two hearts that link a vow of love and care

With starry stare of a promise of joyfulness

Emit a breath of fire that warms the very core

With hands in clasp never to leave in the lurch

Whilst storm and drought a challenge to bear

A valiant noose strongly holds to its tightness

Gripping with a vouch to take a step in two

Amidst the blizzard smolders the flame of love

A twist and turn beclouds the joy with pain

Not a flicker of hope to light up the dark alley

The human frailty clouts the love with muddle

Shatters the heart into pieces of broken dreams

A fault not even a throttlehold for the covenant

So powerful to cast a shadow of darkness

Once together as body and soul now miles apart

From hearts emanate the flame of hate and detestation

Too boorish as why the riches as one worldly owns

Weigh more than the wealth that love has nurtured

In a blink of an eye a blunder effaces with callousness

A love once enfolded by union of bliss with offspring

Now a spouse in grief so wretched in desolation

With stare at nothingness an empty heart whimpers alone

So enfeebled with a wish for death to come as an escape

From a journey that only sees the seamiest part of life

I was inspired to compose this poem from a friend who is now in her lowest low. She is distraught with grief, with her marriage now in limbo. The reason behind the failing relationship is too preposterous for her. I need to be receptive to her, she's now at a loss, on a crossroads, not knowing which way to go.
