My Valentine's Dreams Leave Me Teary-eyed

Dove

My broken heart bleeds

 into the eventide

 

My shattered soul

full of pain and tears

 

My thoughts fill with

doubts personified

----------------

 

My lips quiver as my

lonely tear drops slide

 

My heart is tethered

to my soul's fears

 

My broken heart bleeds

into the eventide

----------------

 

Trembling in fear ,

losing my pride 

 

Wishing love's magic

dust were here

 

My thoughts fill with

doubts personified

----------------

 

Will twilight's beams

leave me satisfied

 

Will "I love you's" ever

echo in my ears?

 

My broken heart bleeds

into the eventide

----------------

 

Love's blissful nectar,

oh why is it denied?

 

My shattered soul

crying in crimson tears

 

My thoughts fill with

doubts personified

----------------

 

My Valentine's dreams

leave me teary-eyed

 

Magnifying my pain

and all my fears 

 

My broken heart bleeds

into the eventide

 

My thoughts fill with

doubts personified

    Nice. Villanelles are such a fun poetic form that I often avoid but when someone can create a meaningful one it is amazing. Good job! 👍

    • Dove

      Thanks again Rocky! Much appreciated

    • Doggerel Dave

      I do hope your neat villanelle was FOR the broken hearted, and not you right now, Dove.

      • Dove

        Indeed, maybe once upon a time! But happy now

        • Doggerel Dave

          The relief, Dove Dear!

        • Goldfinch60

          I am sure that you are not the broken hearted Dove and that love is always with you.

            Wow a soulful superb vilanelle for the broken hearted, such appealing words longing and missing love, must be terrible, can only imagine how it feels , though having love in life is not piece of cake for all yet having none is more painful. Kudos!

            Plz do read and comment my newest poem too.

            And
            Happy valentines day, poets.

            • Dove

              this is rather special my dear friend & I have more than just a sneaking suspicion that this is but a demonstration of your poetic versatility & far from autobiographical ........... x5 *****'s 🙂

              • Dove
