All love's labour lost, now love is gone, dreams fade to emptiness, meaning of life is now shattered; well said, well done; thanks for sharing this work.

Your poem, A Glass Heart, is a worthy entry in the 20 Word Poem contest. I particular I like the lines 'battered, almost shattered'. Dreams do fade to emptiness if our hearts are broken. Good luck in the contest.

This is a very good entry for the 20 word poem contest. The word count is in line and the content leads the reader to escape with the meaning behind the words. Regret, out of time, lost love, loneliness - it has a mood of its own. Well done and best of luck in the competition. ~DD

Comment from Therese Caron
I just used my last six, or I would give it to you for this beautiful poem. I only give sixes to poems I can feel, and I can feel this one (unfortunately). Slowly bleeding out is outstanding. Your image is gorgeous and the colors and font complement your writing. Best of luck in the contest.

I'm surprised! I definitely could not do that.
Comment from Maureen Sky
Love the photo! Very nice short poem but packs a big punch of heartfelt emotions - one can feel your pain. Times are difficult enough without having to lose someone or something dear to us. Great job here!

Comment from thaities, Rebecca V.
Lost love is devastating to say the least. No matter the method of lost, or when it happened, it is an overwhelming calamity rarely forgotten, and hard to overcome.
A wonderful poem.

You sure did a great job on short notice.
Comment from Patty Palmer
Sometimes that's the way it goes. No matter how hard you might have tried in a relationship. it doesn't seem to matter. It's not easy to deal with a lost love. The picture you chose is beautiful and enhances the poetry well.
Stay safe and healthy!

Comment from estory
Nice job with the free verse here, my friend. Liked that "batters/ shatters" in the opening, you get the heartbeat rhythm there in that too. I liked the fragmented feel of this and I think it conveyed this sense of a broken relationship, feelings bleeding out. Fading away to emptiness. The world is an empty place without love. estory
