Beloved by Liyona

You were my sunshine

and my rain

I loved each and

every petal

and laugh

Then the world tore us

apart

shredded

my bare hands

Can I be forgiven?

Beloved

Who gave me your heart

Who rested in my arms

I see you in the trees

I see you in the stars

There you are

Waiting

Asking

Pleading

Demanding

my soul as

recompense for the love

that I let die

 

 


This poem is inspired by the Monster She Wrote, Prompt Challenge: Day 10- Beloved. I will be trying to follow this prompt challenge as much as I can throughout the month of October! My other poems can be found on the blog The Life and Times of a Quirky Character. Photo by Edan Cohen on Unsplash.
