I have heard girl’s giggle
As I walked alone
The hard stones
And thought on lover’s wriggles.
Then returned home
To my bed to lie
Where no lover’s sigh
And the emptiness of night
Grips me tight.
But when love dies
Lovers also cry.
I have heard girl’s giggle
As I walked alone
The hard stones
And thought on lover’s wriggles.
Then returned home
To my bed to lie
Where no lover’s sigh
And the emptiness of night
Grips me tight.
But when love dies
Lovers also cry.
That’s so moving, Kevin.
Thank you, Esther. I’m pleased you like my poem.
“But when love dies Lovers also cry” I like that. Sounds like something Prince would sing.
Thank you, Tony. I’m delighted you like my poem. I must confess to not being all that familiar with the music of Prince.
Such a lovely, moving poem, Kevin. Thanks for sharing it.
Thank you for your kind comment, Vivienne. I’m delighted you like my poem.
