Goodnight My Darling

Hello there Christian, I hope you're okay? Thank you so much for your kind comment, I really appreciate it. Just shows how powerful love can truly be between two people. :)

Hey there, I hope you're okay? Thank you so much for your lovely comment, it's great to hear such nice things like that. I'm glad the poem conveys emotion. :)

Hi Sk2093, I hope you're okay? Thank you so much for your lovely comment, it really means a lot... Love is a powerful force in the world and to lose the person in your life that you loved so much must be absolutely heart-breaking, like losing a part of yourself. Thank you again. x

Thank you for your lovely comment thumblina, your kind words mean a lot. :) I'm glad you liked the poem.

Hello again Ikky, as always a pleasure to see your comments. :) I'm really pleased that you enjoyed reading the poem. What I wanted to try and do with 'Goodnight My Darling' was to try and convey how heart-breaking it must be to lose the one you love in life, to lose the one who was always there for you, who always picked you up when the world knocked you down and who loved you for who you were. I guess I wanted to try and show the idea that, just like how a bird needs it's wings to fly, people need each other in life to love and to listen and to be there and to lose the light in your life is like being a bird and suddently, you just lose them completely and hurtle towards the ground. I can imagine it being like losing a part of yourself. I'm so pleased that you enjoyed this poem Ikky, it really means a lot that you took the time to read it so thank you very much. :D Thank you for the 'like' as well, 'tis very kind of you indeed. :) All the very best to you Ikky. :) x

Hey Suzonne, I hope you're okay? Thank you very much for your lovely comment, it really is much appreciated. I think it's nice when people are able to relate to the pieces.

Hi there Liam, thank you very much for taking the time to stop by and leave some really good feedback. I'm glad that you felt this piece had some good lines to it. Not at all, I guess that everyone has their own type of poetry that they like whether it be a piece that follows a rhyming pattern or whether it's one that simply is without the need for any rhyming to it. I'm pleased that you enjoyed both the piece and the voice used as well. I know what you mean about picking apart works, I myself quite enjoy being able to look at each section of a piece and analyse it and look at what is good and what's been done effect effectively and so on. Absolutely, I understand what you mean about the clichés and what not, particularly when it comes to talking about love. These words that I wrote came from the very heart itself and I take a very old-fashioned view on things like love and so on. I guess I am a cliché kind of person because this is how I would be with my lady if it was my final goodbye. I think that looking at it, I wouldn't have written it any differently to how it has been written because my style is kind of clichéd when it comes to romantic pieces. I like to look at the things that others might see as the usual cliché. I agree that you have to be careful to not let your voice become shrivelled and approach the poem in a way whereby you can still be you, but I think that this is just the way the poem is, simply because I put myself in the shoes of someone who was losing their partner, their lover and so this piece is me essentially being me, I guess it's how I'd write it no matter how many times I re-do it. Absolutely, it's definitely helped a great deal Liam and I appreciate your constructive feedback, it's always nice to see what others think of your work. My pleasure Liam, thank you very much once again for taking the time to stop by and have a look for me. Take great care and have a good day! :)
