A Tragic Heart

A theme of Love and how it can be strange.

Never quite knew how to tell you how I felt about you,

Never quite knew how I actually did feel about you.

Thinking I loved you was never a mistake, but

It wasn't ever really true, right?

I'm not in love with you, it is ephemeral,

Like a mist that swiftly overtakes you and

Disappears. 

My hands are empty, 

My scars are invisible,

Unseen by you and I.

It is my Tragic Heart, unknown to you...

Author's Note

A quickly-written poem I just improvised. :P
Please review this, I want honest opinions about it.

I liked this poem a lot.
"I'm not in love with you, it is ephemeral,
Like a mist that swiftly overtakes you and
Disappears. "
The above lines are classical. Something we need and we don't know why? Thank you Lovecraft for sharing the excellent poetry.

The way you articulated this, in the back and forth metaphorical laments and questionings... Really was on point. Excellent work. Sometimes the best things we can write are quickly-penned in haste, then later reformed for taste.

[Lovecraft]

Thanks, dude. :)

It's a difficult thing to navigate, Love.
The tragedy is when there is love on both sides but only one that fearless while the other fights or hides it. For whatever reason...

[Lovecraft]

It's quite difficult for me. It's damn hard to tell someone that you love them. At least it is for me.

[Papaya]

i think that is true for most people

An unheard love letter....epic! I'm partial at
the moment to a writer and her muse or vice versa...it's simple and knowing!

[Lovecraft]

I'm a guy, so it's written from a male perspective. I can't really help that :P

[Gypsy Warrior Queen]

Exactly, my muse at the moment is wicked talented. He is a beautiful friend and writer. I like the perspective.

[Lovecraft]

My muses tend to be lost loves from my past but sometimes I just don't need a muse for some of my poetry.

[Gypsy Warrior Queen]

I muse from the world's light and dark. It's intense at times and silent at others.
