Love hung in her closet
like a lonely dress
no longer in style
If I told her
that dress was made for her
would she wear it
one more time
She looks beautiful in love
She wears it well
One day I may tell her
Perhaps, I never will
If I don’t
it will always hurt
to know
Love hung in her closet
it was never worn
for me
Nice write! The last line really punches the piece home. The poem gives an imagery sense that she is unaware he is watching her at some distance as he is weighing a question. Love it.
Thrilled that you do. And I love hearing your interpretation. He certainly is weighing that question. Thank you so much for taking the time out to read and share your thoughts.
Beautiful as always and you never fail to impress me with the way you use metaphors. You are a brilliant writer and your passions shine through with every poem!!
It’s been a while since I read one of your poems – probably me just not having enough time. But what a great one to see! So eloquently and cleverly written. There’s probably a lot of love out there just hanging like dresses – people afraid or putting love to the back of life’s commitments.
Smiling. I was away for almost seven weeks. Went to Cancun then came back to travel within ther United States. The little hiatus helps recharge the batteries.
Happy you liked the metaphor. Sadly, there is a lot of love out there hanging in closets.
Thank you for your kimnd words. I will be visiting you tomorrow. Thank you
You made me very happy with your lovely words. Delighted that you loved this. I really like this one as well. Something about it really spoke to me. Crazy.
Thank you
Not the first time my buttons don’t work. LOL
Touched by your beautiful words Carmen. Not surprised that a stylish elegant lady like you would
see the beauty of this poem. That is a reflection of the true beauty inside of you.
Happy that you think so. Flattered by your kind words. I get most of my images from Google Images.
Thank you for taking the time out to read and comment. I appreciate it.
Very kind of you to say that my dear Fiery. You are a wonderful writer, one of my favorites here in WordPress.
You breathe life into everything you write; poetry and prose.
And beyond all of that, you are a sweetheart.
Thanks for the mention. Appreciate the kind gesture.
Please, stay inspired. xoxoxo
I love this so much! “Love hung in her closet it was never worn for me”. That is such a powerful final line. What a lovely and moving piece. I hope that she may give love another chance and wear it again someday.
Grateful and humbled by your beautiful words. I am delighted you took the time out to stop on my page and read my little
poem. Verey touched by this kind gesture. Thank you for your words and support. xo
Drew… It is so inspired, beautiful, creative, romantic, lovely, poem, when the it´s real, you want to wear every day or your life.
Excellent!!!! Bravo!!!
I really enjoy.
Beautiful night!
