Nights and Nights

Tonight
is colored blue
in the name
of your absence

Tonight
is like a bone

shattering

Well, I can see you kept this short and rather sweet, yet tonight will differ from the other. Trust in that word

[Adam Adams]

it's more like emptiness in the world when the lover of life's being absent, & the lone home is nothing but full of blues. very deep & intellectual poetry you've come to licked down.

[Raven]

The rendering of emptiness within so few words. Blue has always represented sadness. The final stanza is as though the heart has had too much. The ache is overwhelming.

Thank you for these words - they are beautiful, almost a poem in themselves.

[ReedWrite]

Very poignant...and in that, utterly beautiful.
I love the short poem that speaks so loudly...says far more than the words used to pen it on paper.
Nicely done.

I myself prefer very short poems that pack a punch with almost no words, so this is my attempt at writing one myself. Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!

You said a handful in the short poem. Amazing use of words.

The idea was to get as much meaning into as few words as possible. Glad to hear that it worked - thank you so much for your feedback!

[Coyote Poetry]

You did very well and you are welcome.

You show a succinct way of describing loneliness and sorrow. This is short but puts emotion into words nicely.
