Who Will Write Her Lovesong

She waits in vain for a new love to begin
this never to be
for she will not let them in
so who will write her love song?

There are places she can no longer go
there are words that she will never know
for who will write her love song

There are so many avenues for her to persue
some may be old, others may be new
but no one will write her love song

Feelings grow restless
with each passing day
her thoughts are scattered and go astray
still no one writes her love song
will it be you?

it's a question which keeps propping up again and again which is why I believe there is repetition of the line about writing her love song...

i liked the way it's expressed...

be well...

He was one of a kind and I sit here with tears streaming down my face. I do so wish he was here. I miss him too. He loved you so much. I am sorry to write so candidly. This just wrenched my heart. I dont know whats ahead for any of us. But I do so want you to be happy. Joyously so rapturously so. Love you. x

Your poem is perfect. I see nothing I'd change. Beautifully sad lovely.
