    Poem Commentary

    A little something which escaped my pen unexpectedly. Really not sure about it though.

    My Sanguine Knight

    It is the space you fill

    The void you occupy,

    That I most keenly feel

    When we are parted.

     

    For every immortal moment

    We spend locked

    In a fantastic orbit

    About our love,

     

    A thousand more

    Will be blackened

    With unnatural solitude.

    When we are apart,

     

    My chest folds tight

    And my eyes leak salty tears,

    Of breathless loss.

    I yearn for you,

     

    Your touch and taste,

    Kiss and embrace,

    Your smile, your laugh,

    Your warm arms

     

    Holding me in restful,

    Unapologetically blissful

    Slumber.

    My sanguine knight.

    This is an excellent piece, and when read aloud rolls smoothly off the tongue and leaves a pleasant aftertaste! Lovely work!

    Thank you for commenting! Yes being apart from someone you love is very difficult, but the reunion afterwards is all the sweeter. Thank you again! Narrator.

    Poetry is what gets lost in translation.
