I love the last line - "I know it's over - still I grip." I feel this so deeply right now. I appreciate your poem. Thank you so much for sharing, and best wishes to you.

I noticed you used strong verbs to describe the emotion of losing one's love. I prefer to think this love has died rather than just left. Death is harsh, but cling, grip, and dread are harsh words. I enjoyed this entire beautifully prepared package. Thank you.

    Yes, death is very harsh. The meaning can be more than one thing, you got it right. Thank you, Barbara!

Oh, it looks is very good! Like art is the language of the heart. Gypsy Word Weaver.

I'm kinda behind the 8 ball but catching up;

Reading...dread dawn has a nice ring to it! Somehow, it makes me think of the zombie apocalypse?

I hope another day is on its way! Tomorrow is never promised.

I know it's over - still I grip.

Metaphors come to mind reading this. Hum, could mean my years are coming to an end. Yep. Gripping. Hahaha!

BOOtastic!

    Ever seen the movie Apocalypto? It's about Myans that are captured and sacrificed in a temple. A native rips the heart out with a dagger below the sternum. Then offers the beating heart to the Sun God. It's hilarious too!

I like this story of the end of a love affair, finding it very clear and vivid for so few words. The day/way line on line 4 intrigued and captivated me. Kate xx

Hi Gypsy, a heartfelt poem that could be interpreted from the POV of a widow/loved one or someone after a breakup. Good sensory appeal.

Of note:
as another day is on its way --
I know it's over - still I grip

Well chosen photo. Keep the blue waters flowing. LateBloomer
