Love Poem: The Silent Void

The Silent Void

There is a silent void in my heart
That I fear is permanent, and will not depart.
I look at the flowers, but I don’t really appreciate.
Divorce left a black hole that is hard to dissipate.

Don’t look back, everyone is quick to say.
I wish I could not think of him for just one day.
I gave him my heart long ago, and he threw it away.
I have to forget him, or the void will be here to stay.
