Love Poem: Where Do You Go

Where Do You Go

Where Do You Go

Where do you go when love leaves you?
 Where do you go to grieve?
 Where do you bury the shattered heart
 And hide all the wounds , tell me please?

When does the Sun start shining
 After a romantic encounter ends?
 When can you pick up the pieces
 And can you start over again?

How does a  life flourish
When dumped on with such cruelty  
How can the true heart live alone now
When promised sincere loyalty ?

No more candles and wine nor shared bathes 
No more romantic music nor perfumed whispers in my ear
No more laughing in the pouring rain 
No more seeing you again 
No more Honey , Sweetheart , and Dear 

Why do the stars shine in Heaven 
 But no longer reflect in your eyes?
 Why did you ever call her Honey when you knew
 The rendezvous would never be permanently realised?
