This day, the ring she had to pawn
He gave her on their wedding day;
The last and final piece was gone,
Of love not meant to fade away
And she in blindness feels the pain
That she’s to blame for what she’s lost;
And hears a whisper in the rain
“With life comes death,
With love
Comes cost.”
Wow.. you covered a life in so few lines so believably, I sincerely hope this is not a true story!
Sadly it is.
I’m sorry to hear that.. I had to wonder, as it toggled memories of my own (first) marital dream’s demise. But what a poet you are! Bravo!
Thank you. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you reading.
I felt her pain. You are so eloquent… I can’t stop reading you. Just hit the Follow button a while ago… bookmarked!
Thank you!
