Forbidden

Only angels lament
with the moon rising as
days grow shorter and poems
are distant in the light. Do not
leave the word love all alone to
wither on a tree like a half-eaten
apple core.

Just whisper a tender
goodbye.

I liked the mood of this dear Anna.
I'd start a new stanza with "Do not leave the world love alone....

but it's your poem and you know better what you want to say.
Thanks for sharing
