Long Ago Poem by Sandra Feldman

Long Ago

Rating: 4.5


Purple lilies sing no more,
The songs that once were known,
Life brings clouds of come and go
Then suddenly,
One day, you turn around,
And find you're all alone.

When, oh When did life begin?
So fast it passed away,
Long ago, it seemed so slow
Then, only in one day
All the roses died at once,
Goodbyes were never said,
All the roads just led to one,
With loneliness ahead,
Never more to be as one,
Never more, 'I love you'
To be said.

Your poem so completely expresses the loneliness that ts felt when a partner exits the relationship. The pain is evident in each of the words in your verse and the reader is aware of your great loss, referencing love. A wonderful write. : -)

Realisation of being alone comes suddenly. It is the loneliest feeling of all.
