Letter to A lost love

Wanted to write a love poem which is way out of my comfort zone.

 

Will thy love flutter in the pit of my stomach like a decaying butterfly struggling to survive
Shall thy heart pass before me as if a wind of an untimely season
Might I see thy tears flow downward like rain in an abandoned forest
My love for thee slips from my grasp like hot coals from a raging fire

My emotions runs wild like an untamed steed searching for his mate on a desert plain

I long to feel the simplest touch from thy soft silky skin
and I yearn for a glimpse of thy pale porcelain face

In hopes that my heart will once again be pierced by ye emerald eyes

Must our love wither away like dust of decay on a stormy sea
I will die willingly knowing that I once held thee in my arms

My heart beat grows slow and soon I will join you in the great beyond

‘tis my mortal fate that I should die here on the sea of lost love.

Way out of my comfort zone here, but thought I'd give a love poem a chance.

You did a great job there in the twilight zone! Lol, you really put a lot of love and some beautiful imagery into this. I love the way you have added such a sad touch to all the love you are writing here. I think you should get out of your comfort zone more often, can't wait to see where you go next!

Reaching out of your comfort zone worked in your favor. Well done! Don't know that I would personally have said a decaying butterfly in a love people but maybe that is that Men Are From Mars thingy! ^^ (Joking) Keep up the great work!
