Lost Sunshine

in CCC • 3 days ago

Greetings friends!

This time I am attemping to write a poem. I hope you won't laugh at it.

I was alone, my world was dim,
Then you walked in and became my sunshine.
We shared our days, our dreams, our fears,
I still remember those moments that fill my eyes with tears.

We talked for hours, shared everything,
I remember the time when every moment felt like spring.
I spent my time believing life was kind,
Still can’t believe you had left me behind.

You forgot the depth of the love I gave,
And left without a moment's pause, left me in a dark cave.
You cast me aside like something worn and useless,
You created a void in my life that’s difficult to face.

If something’d troubled you, you could’ve spoken to me,
I would’ve given up the relationship that had no honesty.
I would not have begged a reluctant heart to stay,
I would have accepted the truth and walked away.

But you chose silence as if to mock my pain,
Leaving scars that is difficult to heal.
You became the darkest night I mistook for the sunshine,
But still tell people that everything is fine.

You threw me away like a worthless coin,
Destroyed the bond which is impossible to fix again.
Yet despite the broken heart, despite the pain,
My heart still longs for the moments that’d made me insane.

I still pray for you, I still miss your smile,
And I still think of you every once in a while.
Deep down, a part of me hopes to get,
The lost sunshine, the golden moments.


It took me time to finish it. So, I am not sure whether it's fit for the daily prompt contest.

Sort:  

I love it and it doesn't if you write longer than those 5-10 minutes to finish it.

I am sure many broken hearts will recognise themselves, especially the void.

This BOOMING vote is yours and well deserved!
❤️🍀

Your poem not, the broken heart is... Some never recover.

How are you and how do you feel (besides of busy and tired)?

This is a new side of you that I didn't know existed. I'm not a big fan of poetry, but it sounds really good because it seems sincere. Congratulations!

It started bright with sunshine and ended dark with sadness. Your poem, I felt the pain 😢 (so different from your usual witty, comedic posts hehe). I like this writing of yours, I could feel the sincerity, the emotion. It is not easy but time does heal, it is a matter of how long is needed.

This is so familiar, in a painful way.
