THE SILVER TRAY
One crushed dream washed by another, wave after wave,
death after death and the pain were enough to make you
give up the struggle, leave it behind, abandon ship, float away.
You vanished into the mist the same way you came into my life.
One night and you were gone like the fog rolling in the woods,
wiping out your trace, leaving behind nothing but a single memory.
Here are some of my latest poems:

Interesting! I've been enjoying your writings recently and I don't think I've experienced any of your poetry up until now. I really liked the flow of it, you really understand how you can punctuate a longer sentence for maximum effect. I think I pointed out a sentence from the underground post the other day, that one left me amazed.
I'll be following along! Looking forward to hearing some more.
Nice to have you back! I enjoy reading your comments here and on Discord. I am glad you liked the teaser. I hope you liked some of the other poems I posted here.
Good! I love leaving them :D
I haven't yet, but I'll swing by soon enough and see what you've got going on! I have a lot of editing to do today but I'll check one out when I'm chilling.
dark stuff - but someway cool. Love to read more.
It's just the right amount of darkness.
Your poem speaks of a broken heart...awww
I am glad to see that you were able to see things through the author's eyes. ;-)
When the author is a prolific writer, whose poems project realities, readers are bound to relate. Weldon @lymepoet
This is definitely a great excerpt! It's phenomenal - the imagery of the fog was put in quite nicely. I am looking forward for your book and more news about it!
Thanks! You'll get a copy once I am done editing.
Ooh! Can't wait!
Wow. It's really good!
Thanks for stopping by! If you liked it, check out the others poems linked on the bottom of my post.
Wonderful I love more
Appreciated! I will have a teaser each week until the book will be out in May.
I can see that it will be a spectacular book @lymepoet.
This fragment is amazing, right to the heart!!! Looking forward for knowing more about your book!!
Spoiler alert: the whole book speaks about matters of the heart. Thank you for your support.
Beautifully written. I am so excited for your book @limepoet. The words, they are written from the heart.
Wow I must be getting better at reading poetry, not sure if I was meant to but this kinda scared me. Thinking about my passing and just being well forgotten and made me think what meaning does my life have to other people. Thank you so much for this.
Your lines are splendid! Would keep my eyes out for the main work.
Thank you.
