Soul's Twin

Soul's Twin


the day you left
I felt bereft
like orange pulp
peeled away
from it's skin

the sun goes down
much faster now
and darkness is
pervasive
like all sin

whispered voices
offer choices
that sweet promise
happiness
is within

but I 'm without
and there’s no doubt
I'm missing the
better half.....
my soul's twin

this is how i feel.... until my one true love (if there is such a thing)..., comes along....
a very good and quaint morning poem to be read with a hot cup of coffee or steaming green tea....

Great imagery, Mysty...though it's not as bad as it sounds...the sweet juicy fruit inside is laid bare for one who will really appreciate all the flavors, tangy AND sweet.

the day you left
I felt bereft
like orange pulp
peeled away
from it's skin



but I 'm without
and there’s no doubt
I'm missing the
better half.....

Ok, if this poem is relating to you, dear one, it's the soul's twin who is missing the better half!! LOL! He is missing much, much more than he knows!

Lovely poem overall...a little sad tho.

Awe,
Orange pulp pulled away from its skin. This is a creative image, it works in this case. Although it does dry up, but so does the peel. I guess the orange has been eaten, and the pulp and peel went to waste in this story.

"whispered voices
offer choices
that sweet promise
happiness
is within "

She seems to know the misery is only temporary.

Okay, mysty Okay girl I see your doing your thing. You are definitely a brillant writer. This made me smile. I just felt like this about three days ago until me and Mr. Right made up. Girl, darkness came right after work cause when I got home from work I would go straight to sleep, didn't want to wallow in missing him. Girl this really made my heart shudder a little. I like! ALOT!
