Every day, my heart aches.
Our love is fading away.
I want to keep it active.
I wish there was a stronger boat.
To keep our love safe:
Our love is drowning in the deep ocean.
I wish I could change how you think.
To reverse the flow of time
To bring back unforgettable memories.
Memories that make you fall in love with me all over again.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.

BEST! I LOVE IT!
Gloria, Your poem beautifully conveys the ache of losing a connection, using powerful imagery like a boat sinking in the ocean to symbolize love in distress. The wish to change someone’s thoughts and relive cherished memories reflects a deep longing to repair and rekindle what's slipping away. It’s a heartfelt portrayal of love’s fragility and the hope to bring back the magic that once was. Your emotions truly shine through, and I encourage you to keep sharing these vulnerable moments—it resonates deeply.
This was so poignant. Loved your poem!
Fabulous!
