When Love Dies

Life stops dead in its tracks in mourning for lost love

When Love Dies

When love dies, a hush remains,

A shadow slips between two planes.

The soul, once bright, now silent weeps,

A grief too deep for gentle sleep.

The heart, a bloom once flushed with red,

Wilts and withers, cold and dead.

No spark remains, no whispered tune,

Just hollow echoes in a silent room.

Dreams unravel, soft and slow,

Like fading stars that cease to glow.

The soul cries out — a soundless plea —

Lost adrift on a darkened sea.

As time moves with steady tread,

A part of you lies quiet — dead.

For when love dies, it takes its due,

Leaving an ache that lingers true.

There is no spark, no second dawn,

Only a heart that beats Slowly till dead

love hurts, wounds and kills each beat.

As when the heart dies, engulfed in defeat.
