Lovejuice Minnow Promotion // LEAVING OF YOU by @warpedpoetic

in poetry •  7 years ago  (edited)
This is a poem I wrote some time ago, it's called Loneliness. The poem's name means Soledad in spanish, which is the name of a woman. I wrote it because she was my only company when I broke with my girlfriend.

Btw, sorry for my bad english, it's the first time I write a poem in english. I hope you enjoy it @isaria @lovejuice @aggroed


Last night I felt her next to me,
imploring desperately to make love,
but in the vastness of my bed
I tried to touch her body and there was nothing
but your name in the void.

In the deepest darkness,
I heard her voice screaming moans
between the silences of my words,
but it was your whisper,
mimicking the pleasant sound of her presence.

Last night, I felt her nails scratching my skin
with routine tenderness,
but it only was your unsatisfied longing of being touched.

Under the warmth of my sheets,
I found her sweet scent,
but it wasn’t more than the passion of the memories
we left clothed in them.

Last night, I thought I found her caresses sculpted over my body,
but it only was the scars that your company has left me every night
while I evoked in my dreams the moments when she was mine and I was hers.

In the infinity of my room,
I imagined I'd saw her shadow shaped on the walls
as a premise of her comeback,
but it only was your mocking figure,
making fun of my pain for losing her.

Last night I heard her heart beating carefully next to mine,
just to not wake him up,
but it only was your nostalgic mourn,
refusing the fact that my heartbeats still scream her name.

Last night…
Last night I felt her sleeping in my arms,
but then I woke up and it was just you…
Loneliness.
