I am afraid
there is no subtitle to this
Of course we're locked
Into our sufferings,
Said Cohen
/
Yet I've loved you of
A love with no name
And couldn't be
/
Three times I asked
If there was hope
You couldn't see
/
And now I'm meant to cut
Branches off my body
And be well?
/
But we were happy once
When there was hope
We were happy once
When we believed
/
I don't have you now, and I can't fill
Your void with platitudes
You found me broken, and made
me believe I could be whole

Writing To Succeed
If you want to find something that will help readers find your writing, possibly expand your audience, and maybe even get you noticed for other things, then you’re not alone. But how can you get it done in a world full of want-to-be writers? Look less at what you’re writing now, and more at what other writers have used to boost their views and reads.

“You found me broken, and made me believe I could be whole” - heartbreaking. The whole poem is heartbreaking, honestly. And very touching. 💔
Indeed, a relationship is like a tree that spreads its branches. And when the drought comes, unfortunately it stops bearing fruit. I liked that you said he couldn’t see the faint light of hope. And how beautifully you describe the pain of separation.
