Mauve
The twilight sky invited me outside.
To rejoice my aching eyes.
A sky awash with ten shades of pink.
Heaven's link.
Each a different strain of my bleeding heart.
Over a love that has no start.
Joy bleeds in my core at the sight of such magical beauty beyond my door.
It dilutes the anguish, turns it mauve.
To rejoice my aching eyes.

Over a love that has no start.
Joy bleeds in my core at the sight of such magical beauty beyond my door.
It dilutes the anguish, turns it mauve.

Some of the expressions here are nice. "Each a different strain of my bleeding heart. Over a love that has no start." I like that, because it can pick up, and go wherever, given the proper emotional context. It could be sadness; it could be potential. Yeah, you're getting the hang of "gathering meaning" to conciseness. When you can use a few words, and have several meanings, or emotions, or feelings, you know you're getting good. Bravo. Anyway, I can see some growth here. Keep putting pen to pad!

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me. I feel like you have a deep understanding of poetry & I learn a lot about my own from your comments. I hope I can continue growing as a writer, as I just imagine the words, I don't know the technical stuff about a poem's structure & meaning. You are very kind to give me feedback I learn from. 🤗

Heaven's ink, even, right?! Lovely write. I hope the fading friendship is only a temporary one.

Thank you! I like that - heaven's link. The friendship was with a chess player and I think we both have very grueling lives, so I'm hoping we will find our way back. If not, I deserve more than a few crumbs in any relationship.

I honestly thought the friendship that was fading away was the sunset until another day, lol.
