Waiting for Decade

by Augustus Black   Feb 1, 2015


I'm a crying soul,
Who is waiting for decade, for you to return!
Don't know where have you gone?
I often cry for hours holding the railing of my balcony,
As I'm living only in your memories
With solitary arms and dry lips;
Sans your love.
I often bring bunch of roses for you,
But everytime it gets wilted.

Daily evening I sit at my balcony;
And watches the cataract, highlands and wood
While harking blended notes. (Birds - Song)
This wood always reminds me of yours.
As I saunter here, I sense your hand is holding my hand so often.
The soreness of exodus breaks me everyday,
Hankering for your hugs and your kisses.

All dreams and promises are vanishing,
I had never thought we would depart for so long.
These saline liquids are unstoppable,
Seems like soon my eyes would ran out of tears.
But I'll not relinquish,
Because you are the only one I love.

And I accept as true,
That one day you will definitely arrive;
Running all the way down the highlands and this wood
with the tears of joy to become my bride.

    Hello Augustus,

    1st- I want you to know that you are a great author,

    2nd- this piece was so lovely and romantic..if she would see this she'll probably go back to you soonest. or if not she'll live her life with regret.

    3rd--I have some suggestion you may consider .

    I'm a crying soul,
    Who is waiting for (insert "a" here) decade,

    -->Who is waiting for a decade,

    Daily evening I sit at(maybe it's better to change "at" with "On") my balcony;

    -->Daily evening I sit on my balcony;

    Seems like soon my eyes would ran (if you would consider this--> by changing the "ran" with a "run" because u have used the modal verb "would" before "ran"..so "run" is more appropriate.) out of tears.

    -->Seems like soon my eyes would run out of tears.

    4th--your feelings dispatched perfectly .

    well done.

    Hello Augastus,

    I realise that this poem was written over a year ago, so I hope your 'bride' has come back to you and all is going well.

    This poem is written from the heart and from a personal perspective. The image of sitting on a balcony looking out (hazily) through cataracts at a landscape in the hope that she will appear. This image is sad indeed, sad enough to run out of tears.

    A good write.

    Take care,

    Michael

    I sense an event or a situation has taken your love far away. Here you are pining for her arrival and waiting for that happy moment. Yet the write holds a sadness that this love might not return while the author refuses to give up and waits...a touching write.

    Wow, this poem was very touching! I could feel the pain from the writer, and the hope that brings forth a new day. I loved this poem! You did a great job! 5/5
