Queenie

peto

Some life eased out on hollow breath 

The countdown to his lonely death 

A shooting star it fell to earth 

The queen of broken hearts 

 

A soul once ripe now rots away

Sun missing from the sky today 

A crumbling wreck beneath her bay

The queen of broken hearts 

 

The pent up pain it forms a scream 

Along with love she took his dream 

A cat no longer tasting cream 

The queen of broken hearts 

 

Her satin touch will slowly fade 

He fell so hard upon her blade 

The price it has in full been paid 

The queen of broken hearts 

 

Far in the distance out of sight 

Some hope grows in the darkest night 

Another guides him to the light 

The queen of mended hearts

        Beautifully written. My friend, your poem delves into themes of heartache, the emotional toll of love lost, and the transformative power of hope. It personifies love as a “queen” who can both cause pain and ultimately lead to healing.
