What blissful love! Such desolation Destroyed my perfect adoration. To Want again what cannot be so sorrowfully I cling to thee.

Oh, sweet remembrance of Yesterdays! Relive the moment of a Lovers gaze. Beneath the evening a Star cloaked sky, resist the Longing that fills my eyes.

What apathy you've for the love That use to feel so real. Lack of Emotion no more the rush, these Hands have lost appeal. The callous Words pour from your mouth I'm numb In unbelief. How can this one I've Known and loved be so indifferent to me?

You walk away this is goodbye alas, I know tis so; the passion gone Fades in the night in the morning I'm alone.

What guilt! What shame! I feel Remorse for indulgence in desire, For loving you has burned my soul You took my innocence with your Smile.

I've tasted love and I know tis Sweet and the loving sweeter still, But you walk away with a piece of My I'll again never refill.

© Rebecca S., Coventry, RI

The author's comments:
Sorry if there's a bunch of punctuation errors, I'm horrible at it. This poem is not about me personally. It's about someone very close to my heart who's made some mistakes in giving the most important part of herself away to someone who didn't truly love her.

I. Love. This! I love how you used a more refines, shakespearian language. very good. :)

I can really relate to what your saying. and maybe you dont feel this way, but for me i get so aggravated, because it seems they never learn from the mistake made, you know?

anyway, Great job here. I'm a sucker for shakespear, and this remindedly me greatly of him. :)

Consider the word "disbelief" instead of "unbelief". However, I've always thought that twisting words and punctuation are completely up to the author in poetry. I was a bit confused with the random words capitalized, did you do that on purpose?
