Silently She Sleeps

Silently now, at last she sleeps
A respite from all the tears she weeps
A time of peace and pleasant dreams...

The only one she gets it seems
For waking hours are filled with pain
The memories and words remain
That he had once in anger spoken
And left her poor heart badly broken


Close your eyes, forget the past
You knew that it would never last
It's just your luck, from bad to worse
Beneath this crazy lovers curse
The wounds that cause your heart to bleed
Inflicted by this endless need
To have someone to call your own
Oh God, if you had only known


She sees a vision in her head
Upon her pillow tears are shed
She wakes, she thinks, again she cries
Another piece of her heart dies
She sees the pills and takes them all
No more will she take such a fall
This time her slumber is for keeps
Forever silently she sleeps.

Please tell me what you think

    Brilliant!


    I don't know why, but I feel this is very personal. Perhaps someone you know by the amount of times this topic has come up.

    I am awed by your poetic talent. You have a way of conveying emotion in such a powerful way that it brought tears to my eyes. This was great but oh so sad.

    Yep, I liked it !

    Personally, I don't care for flowery, cliche love poems, which is why I like yours. It is original and it drew me in instead of making me roll my eyes!! (There is a typo in the 6th line of 3rd verse....just fyi in case you'd want to fix it!) Great poem!!
