Love's Death Sentence

Death seems to have subdued Love
Love fought so hard
for the one he belonged to
but when she takes
his existence for granted his strength goes
Death meets him then
as Death always wanted
"What is your purpose for existence if no one cares that you are here?"
I ask him
but Love remains silent
seemingly muted by the
lack of appreciation from the girl
he had been born for and fought for
"You should die then"
Logic states
"Die and never come back"
I affirm; this is my wish, Love
die and never return to my soul
I dont want to feel the pain
you cause ever again

thank you

I appreciate the comment. This piece is the first of its type that I personally have ever written. Usually i write poems that try to incorporate some type of rhythm or rhyme. This is simply a reflection of an interpersonal conversation that has resulted from a broken heart. I m glad that you enjoyed it and again thanks so much for commenting.
