silent words crept across
chilled earth, shattered
laughter once ignited by
dreams and promises
of forever
heat of lust extinguished,
diffused with just a touch
from Jack
he knew when seeds of sorrow
lay barren unwilling to release
what should be
remembered in those eyes,
her flight of fancy dancing
carelessly against
a backdrop of him
shifted blame to another
watched hope wither
die a certain death; slowly
