Where did the enemy lurk?

Mottakeenur Rehman

It was my own who plundered me.
What fury lies in gunpowder?
Love’s venom left my heart in debris.

The one I held closest to my soul,
Now drifts beyond reach—cold, untold.
No warmth of brighter days to share,
Just echoes of a love grown old.

    Powerful words. Plundered by one's own no deeper wound. Gunpowder does not have that power. Very nicely written

    Wounds of old now becoming the enemy, nicely written
