Sound smothering me like a dense cloud,
Piercing my thoughts and shattering them as glass.
Shards of memory scatter from my view,
Gone forever.
Cold emotions stealing my heart like a thief.
Silently slipping in through cracks as a rat would.
Love no longer can dwell in this space, it is
Gone forever.
Vision blurred by fits of rage and anger
The sting of mans true nature burning deep,
Hoping there is one still left untouched and not
Gone forever.
A velvet blackness soft and smooth
descending
My heart quickens when I hear your footstep
Through the mist your shadow forms
Tall, shoulders broad,
But wait, I'm only dreaming...
Two hands clasped a strength in one,
The other holding tightly,
Rings exchanged,
But wait, I'm only dreaming...
Your finger gently brushes my hair,
Our eyes meet,
and time stops,
But wait, I'm only dreaming...
To fall asleep beside you with my head upon your chest…
the pain stirs deep in my soul
Watching you agonize over choices
This horrid disease casts a shadow
Everything is dull grey, lifeless
I force a smile hoping its enough
Maybe my strength you'll need
I try some light conversation
But you only reject me once again
Our love , our family, our home is gone
An ego's debt no doubt…
Summer days of childhood
gentle breezes,
The sound of children's laughter.
A low murmur of conversation.
Secrets being buried,
treasure found in chests.
Balls bouncing on sidewalks,
feet skipping rope.
How endless time felt,
and adulthood so far away.
Never feeling hunger,
moving, never stopping.
Cheeks, a rosy glow,
with sun kissed skin.
Running through the garden
letting out a shrill of delite.
