Dearth
Can you feel
the weight of my
longing ..
It is greater than
when I lost blue ..
And so
I now wonder,
where on earth,
did the sky
all go when you
left me
alone with my
hunger ..
Tho’ should we
by chance,
ever meet again
my love ..
I am sure I would
more than
just disappoint ..
Yes again
and again, until
all the cows
have come home
and you had
lost what was
left of your appetite ..

Staring at desire's scarcity peak has a way of doing that. I can feel the strength of your hunger...need. I'm attracted to the urgency of your promise to satisfy; even though you were the one left without; and the willingness to go to great lengths to....please! π
there is indeed an ache I am unable to adequately describe .. but in the meantime, while I hope you are still searching .. I thank thee and from here, to eternity .. π
Well penned my friend. π
Cheers AP .. good to hear from you .. and I hope you are keeping well ππ
and same for you too N. π
IMPRESSIVE u've got a new fan
how extraordinarily kind ma'am .. thank you kindly & truly .. ππ
Good write N.
Write good O .. π
To speak the words of your poem is to feel the emotion. To "wonder where did the sky all go", captures the enormity of the loss, and the regret that it is irrevocable. The pathos of this verse, palpable. A strong write my friend.
I wonder if I wish hard enough, you might just make out the gentle hug I hope I am now sending π
Cleverly written Neville, it may be that that hunger may return for both of you.

thanks Andy, I am replete .. π
'Thoβ should we
by chance,
ever meet again
my love ..
I am sure I would
more than
just disappoint ..'
as i read, recognise and relate
to the brave transparency in these choice words
how I fear, the truth they promise...
a dread, so many of my nightmares
have been sculpted out of..
(such great pacing, dear Poet
so blatantly subtle, so tentatively bold
such refined skill you showcase)
You are way too generous my dear Mek .. Thank you and so very BIGLY .. Neville
'BIGLY'
a new fav word of year
