A World Without Love. Sonnet

Goldfinch60



In deep shadows where heartbeats never sound,

A world now lost of love's sweet tender grace,

Where happiness wilts and smiles are not found,

And hope is but a fading ghostly trace.

 

No warmth of touch to soothe a troubled mind,

Nor whispered words to calm a restless soul,

In solitude the lonely hearts confined,

Each day a struggle never feeling whole.

 

Bereft of joy, the skies forever grey,

No laughter's echo in the silent air,

Eternal night that never turns to day,

Cold winds of sorrow whispering despair.

 

Come love divine come back and light our way,

For in your absence life’s a darkened way.
