Love Hurts....
Poem by: Eadigoo
Falling Tears Quivering Lips
Eyes Red .........Tears Drip......
Makeup Smeared ............She Sits
Morning Sun ......More Tears
We Share
The End of Love
The Morning Light
We Cry .................We Hold Each other Tight.
The Dream Dies with the Night
Love Survives .......Unfilfulled
Wounded
Then Takes Flight.
We Cry............Alone..
----------------------------------------------
"Touch Me in the Morning" ( Diana Ross ) Played all night long and drowned out our sobs, serenading the End of our Puppy Love.

WOW! Who doesn't love Diana Ross song "Touch Me in the Morning." This poem is beautiful Eadigoo. I think some or all of us can relate to this poem.

Thank You for the lovely comment Love XO. We held each other all night at her house in London because the world would be different in the morning. I was heading to NY and she was staying put in London....18 is way too young to set your world in stone ?? IMHO...
Thanks again XO
Woa this almost made me cry, E.
Felt that hurt all the way here. Goodbye is never easy.

That's the highest compliment Nit ...Thank You XO....The Hurt lasted a long time but we survived . The first Love is the hardest.....you still have illusions about life and Love , real life is tough. Lessons well learned.
Later Nite XO
Many many years later the memory of loosing the first girl I fell in love with still cokes back to me when I am feeling alone and the odd tear falls. I can relate to how you felt.

Thank You Story....Like yourself I sometimes get that little drop in the corner of my eye when I think about her. I loved her London accent and I loved her deeply. Time however is a hard taskmaster...it just carries on regardless of how we feel. She was so soft and cuddly...smelled so nice....tasted so nice ( can still taste her ) !!!
I love music and as I read this poem can hear and see this love story play out its end carried by such simple but powerful words, E. Very moving and sweetly said who the song serenaded the dying dream in the night.

I have never been able to listen to that song again !! It was the longest saddest night I've ever had to struggle through. First love gives us a feelings that can never be achieved again....Only one can be your first !! ( all true )
So Happy you liked it Amy ...you're a sweetheart Xo
I love Diana Ross and no better song to set the mood than touch me in the morning. Great poem.

Thank You Lola ,
Diana kept us company all night ....Left for Ireland the next morning and to New York a month later...never saw her again. Sometimes a quick , sharp break is the best way to end what can only be painful for both . XOXO
We all love it when we think we've found our "Right one", yet it IS painful when that turns out to just not be the case! "And they called it 'Puppy love'...", as another very cool song details!

Thank you Sir !! The "right one " can be forever Elusive ...unfortunately !!
I sooo relate to this poem, from when I was younger. I don't think it was puppy love, but maybe! I thought I was in love before that, and I consider that puppy love. Great poem!

Thank You MG. Young love generally end up in tears , just practice for the real world I guess. We get over it but we Never forget it....and Never regret it . This Girl got my Virginity and my Heart , neither one dependent on the other.
Thank You
I really like this, the poetic style of minimalism. Your words are isolated, concentrated, vivid. You understand what poetry is all about...conveying emotion.
I'm a fan of rhyme...though by no means require it.
This is beautifully done.
