Your love was a whisper
Trailing wisps of dreams through my soul
My heartbeat, all aflutter,
Kept me warm in winter's cold
Though I did not understand
Why you chose me, above all
Your answer was always, "Why not?"
In a drawl

Your lullaby of desires
Sang me to sleep each night
I wish you were still
A part of my life
"Goodnight, my darling."
You would say with care
I cannot believe
Why you're not still there

Lightning bugs fly
Golden and silver
Storming the skies
Clouds darken in shivers
The sunlight overhead
Runs out of time
Though this happens
Only in my mind

I see just darkness
A terrible sensation
I feel no happiness
No more elation
And all because
You left me then
This nightmare is the now
That dream was the end

Wow this is SO beautiful. I love the way it is written :) My favorite part is: "Your lullaby of desires/ Sang me to sleep each night."

And "Your love was a whisper/ Trailing wisps of dreams through my soul."

This has great imagery. Could you maybe check out my poem "Shameless Monster (Self-Destructive Me)" or "I am Strong"? I would really appreciate it! :) Thanks and keep writing!!!

It is a very good poem and I think I understand what it is about. It is about losing someone you love and now your all alone, right? I love it though!
