Cemetary Of Forgotten Love Poem by Jeremiah Wimbrough

My soul is destroyed

I have no heartbeat

I cannot hear it.

My heart stopped functioning today
destroyed by no words or love from you.
No recognition of the intensity of feelings we knew.

All gone,
wrecked by life's cruel journey
that separated us from each other.

What now?

How will life go on?

How cruel the world seems
without the knowledge that you are still there,
thinking of me,
caring, loving and filling your dreams with thoughts of me
as I have filled my dreams with thoughts of you.

It is unbearable to think I cannot hope anymore,
for the treasure that life could have held.

All gone now.

Your coldness has reached my heart,
left it's mark.

My tears are for the loss of our dreams, my love,
dreams that were yours and mine.

Gone to where dreams fade and die,
in the cemetery of forgotten love.
