Silent whispers #2

A walk along the pathway
brings back
memories of what never was.  
The heavy scent of
remorse burns a trench
of flame across her heart.
The bitter hate
leaving despair to find
its own way back
to a place called home.
A long walk home,
waiting for the darkness
to claim the weak.
A delirious whisper
breaks her heart as the
coffin is finally
drowned under waves of doubt
in a forgotten memory.
The chains of ice surround her
in her last moments of a
hope lost by will.
Ruby petals of despair
dripping to the ground as
a hail of frozen bullets
slice the peaceful tranquility.
A single diamond tear
mocking innocence as the
demonic splinters the angelic.
Bitter regret,
melding with the bittersweet
innocence of childhood.
Looking to the cold night air
to find a pathway
out of loss to hope,
but she finds none as
the light leaves her eyes.
Nightmares pierce the heart of
the betrayed as the soul
burns deep with hated glory.
The innocence silences
the guilty in the final murmurs
of the dead.
