Enough! Poem by Tony Sandy

Enough!

Rating: 4.6


Shut the windows. 
Close the door. 
Our love doesn't live here 
Anymore. 

Pull down the shutters. 
Lock the gate. 
We no longer care about 
Our fate

Dampen the fire. 
Put out the lights. 
Nothing is alive in this house 
Tonight.

Enough!

That thing Shakespeare said 'it's better to have loved and lost then to have never loved at all' never feels true when your hearts been ripped out. Brutal but fantastic work.

Feeling of separation so powerfully expressed! Every line says it in no uncertain terms.Though it is a sad fact, it is beautiful poetry.

Short and brutal, in accordance with the poet's notes. Leaves me feeling sad, which was probably the intent.
