Love's Decay
Gaps within a bridge
Eating the hidden unknown that lies within
A book once left ajar, slammed shut
It’s story being dismissed
A flower
It’s petals gently brush the sharp, rigid, breeze
Now teetering in pain
With secrets that engulf
No bloom
No blow
No flowers left to grow
Waters so deep
Yet so frozen in place
Romantics with wants to grow
But nowhere to express their tender hearted pleads
Bursts of passion, isolated, left to wither
Their love once so alive, now leaving an empty hole
No longer pumping the heart belonging to the love forbidden soul

This piece can tell many stories from the way that you view it. It talks about not being able to get the love one feels that they deserve. Maybe because it was stripped away from them, or it was simply out of reach. The piece touches on the idea that one wants things they do not have or cannot have which leaves people looking for a way to fill that space in their heart. A space in their heart which can never be perfectly filled.
