The Nature of Sad Love

by Patrick   Feb 9, 2006


This fire for you burns through midnights power as all of time stops for a single eternal hour. Retaining the purest form of sadness, a spark of light flickers in the evening wind.

Whispers are heard of a never dying love. All so unknown to me yet clear to a world above. Rivers running red as the Sky's turn black. Now this death has come taking a lover never to be back.

As stars fall from the sky into the sun of the moon, her face remains in the morning blue. Unable to forget, a never ending reminder of those lips.

Single moments remain of a love that was stronger than the rain. This sadness makes the earth cry in pain. My heart does join in this emotional plain.

These visions of her face burn my mind like the bitter sweet sands of time. Thunder sends its bolts one after another, striking me further down.

Never to forget what once I had to lose to realize my truth. My reason of life, my reason to be was to have a single second with you.

    Why is it that everyone tries to capture love in a message? you seem to be one of the few who actually gets it

    The final 'thee' seems out of sorts with the rest of the poems language. 'You' would have been surfice.

    The rest is very good, however.

    The word choice is really good and deep as well as emotional. It does present a fantastic vivid image. The only things I would suggest might be to only stick to this format if you like it, for me it was a bit hard as I'm not a fan of it. Also maybe take out a word here and there such as:
    Rivers running red as the Sky's turn black. Now this death has come taking a lover never to be back.

    Maybe Rivers running (or run) as Sky's turns black. Now death has come taking a lover never to be back (or return)
