Reason Has Silenced Passion Poem by William Jackson

Reason Has Silenced Passion

Rating: 5.0


The well spring has run dry;
my muse has abandoned me.
Reason has silenced passion.

And while I will not openly shed a tear,
the truth remains for all to see;
I loved you once without reservation.

And though I no longer write about you,
every second, of every minute, of every hour
thoughts of you still haunt my waking and my dreaming.

W, you've done it again (as per a comment I made yesterday or the day before) . To know this feeling is... oh... something. Something brilliantly articulated by you here. This goes down as a favourite for me. And, I suspect, for somebody else. t x

Sometimes you really have to do what they say...and move on...though inveterating passion & true romance is hard to come by....it is harder to get it from out of your mind once you've tasted.......Great write, Bill...Good to see you on-line...an d on a visit to my work...Don't be a stranger...
