Bent and broken
on love's devious trail
Scattered like autumn leaves
in the lanes of abandonment
Devoured by the voracious
appetite of darkness
You are all alone
You must love again
You must plant new flowers
on the soil of your heart
You must hold stars
in the void of your eyes
Bewitched you must be
by the magic of love
Like a dove, once again
soaring to colossal heights
Once love betrayed
but you must love again
For the good of your soul
You must find a cure
Weak and famished
Your soul wants food
Love is the answer
You must love again.

What a lovely poem! I sincerely admire the lucidity of poetic expression, the flow and the psyche of this excellent poem. Keep writing! !
Love or death-there are really only two choices. Well done Nosheen. Such a sweet, sentimental song about the queen of emotions that could only be written by a tender and beautiful heart!
Starry eyes in the blank voids. New flowers, bright and fed upon hope and nourished with happiness. The leaf strewn lane, alone. Once the heart has soared to the colossal heights and has been bewitched within its spell how gray and jagged are these dark valleys without the magic. The dilemma of poets, the despair of the broken heart. Must find love, must find a cure and soar out of the darkness.
Wake up from the dungeons of despair.......... Love knocks at the door....... admit it to soar to new horizons! Lovely write capable of filling the heart with a fresh verve!
