Innocence Lost
by Peggy Bertrand
copyright 07-08-2002


Age Rating: 18 to 127

 
I am empty here, lost in the night:
finding my way through this silent agony,
heart so torn and empty.

this desire so severed,
a surreal emptiness,
forgotten;

yet I wish for
your touch so alive.

This poem more than adequately expresses how the pain of and yearning for unrequited love can be tempered by a concentration on and acceptance of the power of posiive wishful thinking.

On a technical level, the brevity of the poem is a big plus. Here's what a famous American writer had to say about that:

*Poetry teaches the enormous force of a few words, and, in proportion to the inspiration, checks loquacity.*
Ralph Waldo Emerson, preface to *Parnassus (1875)

I think R.W.Emerson would have approved of the effective use of brevity in your poem.

Such depth of feeling, so movingly capturing the struggle of the soul.
