no strings that held you to me
nothing that tied you here
just the pounding of my heart
resonating in my ears
the circle that forms around you
I've now stepped away from
moving left of your center
out of your peripheral zone
that blood red line you drew
traced from a heart that seeped
a fortress to be rebuilt
as love makes it's retreat

So beautifully written in perfect rhyming quatrains, but the message is sad "as love makes its retreat." You have a gift for this style of verse
Terrific poem my friend! Awesome write!
