When All Said and Done it’s All Over

Neville

When All Said and Done it’s All Over

 

I regret

to inform you

I am no

longer the man

you once

wanted or loved

am I darling ..

I don’t

have a clue

what happened

to us,

or for that matter

to me ..

It just seemed to

happen

and came out of

the blue ..

Like a stab in the

back and

a kidney punch,

all rolled into one ..

                    It can end as starkly as you have described it. I recall two acquaintances who simply went home to an empty house., completely empty, everything was gone not even a bed to sleep on. In your poem the pain of loss is transposed into physical pain, "stab and a kidney punch." This conveys the pain nicely. I also noticed the tongue-in- cheek of " I regret to inform you"... clever. "All said and done," a most intriguing poem. - Phil A.

                      that's about as perfect as it can possibly get .. cheers Phil πŸ‘

                    • Parisab

                      Love lost can feel like an expected and unexpected β€˜stab and kidney punch’ in one-to love and loss, I salute!

                      • Neville



                        I am indeed most humbled and I thank you so very much ma'am .. Neville

                      • L. B. Mek

                        its always heartbreakingly morose
                        when the most certain pillar in our life
                        crumbles, before our eyes
                        in that image, we witness a loss
                        we can never replace...
                        but
                        that's why, we can never take love for granted
                        I like the song
                        'I'm going to love you
                        like
                        I'm going to lose you'
                        because it love's truth
                        distilled
                        it's too late to wonder why, after
                        it's our now that matters
                        giving it all, in our very day
                        every conversation
                        every embrace and kiss
                        leaving nothing to chance
                        loving, in a way that will insure
                        come what may, we will have
                        no regrets..
                        (I assume this was inspired
                        by patients or other external influences
                        so i won't worry for you, Hyung)
                        a Great write!

                      • Neville



                        External influences infiltrated my pen .. thanks again my friend πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘
