Free Verse

A chapter in the book One Thousand Cranes

Soon

by Gypsy Blue Rose

 
 
searching for your love

in the deepest sea

of betrayal and pain

is a senseless fool's errand



I built my life around you

and when you left

you took my purpose

and will to live



Now hazy memories

invade my protection walls

cruel images of us

I can't touch or relive



Seems like I loved you

for a million years

and planned to love you

even more

~ but you left ~



I stopped looking long ago

but if I ever find true love

it will be nothing like you



Soon

I won't be able to remember

who we were

all those years of "us"

will dissipate

into nothingness
 
 
 
 
 
 




FREE VERSE is an open form of poetry that does not use meter patterns and rhyme patterns. It thus tends to follow the rhythm of natural speech.

Gypsy
"The poet waits quietly to paint the unsaid." Atticus
