Broken, your heart is not alone
You kept loneliness well-hidden
While comfort now must be your own
Your desires are not bed-ridden
You kept loneliness well-hidden
Now from love, you keep a distance
Your desires are not bed-ridden
In your dreams there's no resistence
Now from love, you keep a distance
Your coy smile you could not contain
In your dreams there's no resistence
Our eyes meeting kindled the flame
Your coy smile you could not contain
One thought exposed, your heart's token
Our eyes meeting kindled the flame
Soon time will come for words unspoken
One thought exposed, your heart's token
While comfort now must be your own
Soon time will come for words unspoken
Broken, your heart is not alone.

Hi Chris, oh my a Pantoum! ! I think it's sometimes hard enough to just give flowing meaning to a freestyle poem but when you have the repeated pattern of a Pantoum that makes it particularly challenging..but nonetheless you succeeded! A lovely piece that benefits exactly from the repeats to express the love and gentleness running through this piece! ...+10
Yes indeed, Pantoums can be a little challenge to write. Thank you for your kind remarks.
