sweetest verses are often those that tell of saddest thoughts and these need to be vented to make space for happiness…may I wish you just that as I start a new day here in Mumbai….ciao…
Aww, thanks so much for your lovely comment, Raja! Just so you know, these words are fiction. I’m happily married and life is good, but we can draw from past experiences for creativity. 🙂 I hope you have a wonderful new day, too!

That’s awesome Lauren. Sad and so full of tears.
Thanks, Al! I have to throw in some tears once in awhile. 🙂
It helps sometimes to throw in the tears. Brings a humanity to it
I’ve been there!
I think we all have, Joe, but hopefully, that was in the past for you. 🙂
That’s beautifully written, Lauren!
Send much love and hugs xxx
Thanks so much, my friend…have a good evening! Hugs and blessings to you! ♥
It’s so hard to say bye. Amazing work.
It definitely is! Thanks so much, Shian!
Beautifully sad Lauren. I love the middle two lines. ❤️ xx
Thanks so much, Chris! I have to add a touch of melancholy in the mix. 😀 Hugs to ya! ♥ xo
Beautifully written. Very sad though. ❤
Thanks so much, Michelle! I know, very sad, but every so often, I have to toss in some bittersweet. 🙂 ♥
Very nicely done. The imagery of the mascara is perfect.
Thanks, Kim, and when that mascara thought came to me, I grabbed it! 🙂
That’s the way to do it.
‘shadows separating’… strong and melancholic. 🙂 xx
Thanks very much, my friend. I always love your visits and lovely comments. Sending hugs! xo
The grey clouds makes an appropriate backdrop for this sad one.
I’m glad you liked it, Binky, that’s what I thought, too. 🙂 I hope my poem wasn’t too sad for you, either…
I loved the opening two lines. So visual!
Thanks so much, Ian! I’m glad those lines seemed like a good beginning…
Haunting and melancholic. I truly love it, Lauren!
I love your adjectives, Miwako, thank you so much and have a wonderful weekend ahead! 🙂
The finality of the final line left me breathless!
If any of my writing leaves you breathless then I am honored, Christy! 🙂 Have a wonderful weekend! xx
Beautifully written! Melancholy well described.
Thank you so much! I appreciate your lovely comment and visit!
