dry tears on my cheeks
in silence and memories
on paper I bleed

in roaming streams
of death’s journey
so much
more poignant
to lose a beloved
to the soundless
laugh of love
the scent of
your absence
with ravenous
desires
on mental shores
of solitude
*
my pain wears
the mask
of a virgin

standing
at the edge
of my muse
adrift in
oceans of tide
lost in pain
where I
find memories
left behind
as I walk
through the
maze in
reflection
of stolen time
where
melange
of illusion
scatters
the mind
in dreams
beguiling
the truth
like echoes
of answers
erased
take me
to that
secret place
through the
darkness
as I still
go on
beneath
silence
and the tears
I weep
*
only time

a
hovering balloon
of
empty sounds
inflated
with love
soaring above
ablaze
to get through
empty darkness
with
reverie
patience
acceptance
poise
**
on the wings
of
zephyr
to kill
the dark
nights

SILENT TEARS
Posted in Emotions, Life, Memories, Pain, Personal, Poem, Reflections, Spirituality, Tears with tags cancer, change, fading away, heart, Life, love, memories, sadness, sickness on January 3, 2015 by Mandy
almost
alone
in murk
of despair
beyond warning
passing through
desolate walls
of what was
yet to be
like a ghost
I flitter
abhorring
the light
a place
of no return
watching the
shadows
as I cry
*
silent
tears

a
jar
of silent words
nestled
at my heart
into my fragile
nocturnes
holding me
in their arms
*
time melts love
where memories
rise
wrapped
in slippery time
**
sketches
we compose
become erased
no right to bleed
as I write
your name
in the sand
***
we
simply
proceed…

shadows
on the wall
solemn darkness
constantly
following
broken only
by screams
of orange
parodies
of naked
truth
behind
painted frowns
as stillness
deepens to
black
every rhythm
playing fate
of its
somber time

SADENESS

covert pain
written across
the pages
of my soul
naked and exposed
where wounds
were bravely born
my inner child
derailed
where I linger
in this space
surrendering
among the puzzles
of reasons why
***
paint me a rainbow
in colours of red
the jewel of
my essence
rising
on wings
of
stone

scattered words
lost in lacuna
black
white
someone’s bleeding
between silent walls
crimson in the night
if I had wings
I’d soar with gust
to the empty sky
and be on an island
in the desert
of my soul
tearing holes
in tomorrow
***
the mask in time
will turn to
dust

YELLOW

the crescent moon
through murky skies
sparkle her light
on my salty face
as if
she could lift
me up
in embrace
and kiss me
*
ad interim
I sit here
in a poem
of reminisce
***
you touched me
with kindness
and mirth
ardor
just
yellow
– love –
