Looking for honest feedback on this poem - October 11th 2012, 08:06 AM

To A One Time Love

Dear beloved; it was not to be;
Even if you had loved me;
Even though you, dear one, I loved.
Listen, for I am bereaved.
It will not take long; listen to this;
A salute to loss, not victory.

Me; I despise the love now mauled;
Ex-loved, you I once adored.
Ring no bells; it is gone
Into the abyss; love foregone.
Even there; my love is lost.
Look not; no awaiting reward.

Ruined is my once great passion for you,
And it is soon lost; sad, but true.
Naught; save for a few lines written.
And for them? Oblivion
Shall their new home be;
Inside none will give my words their due;
No worth, as valuable as a false grin.
Gone; no regret; no sin.
Home? No, simply the broken,
Empty halls of oblivion.

Yeah, I know how that feels :P I read over my first attempts at novels the other day and my jaw hit the ground, I was like 'no way, did I NOT know how to use full stops? And my dialogue? NO!!' haha, quite funny when you look back over something you consider your strengths, back then short stories were more my things, not full on novels

What part of Sydney you from? I was born in Hornsby and my family used to live in Chatswood but now I have no idea cities confuse me!

Jay.
