I hear you whisper
your own written words,
whilst vision blurs
to stain memories
and cries comfort a swelling soul
and the whole of me trembles,
as I remember September
and our parting of ways
and how dismay
destroyed such simple dreams.
I recall reality hindering heart,
as truths pulverised
iridescent ideals...
and those perpendicular pains
etching precepts
in essence's idiosyncrasy.
Sadness sought no manifestation
while malleable means
failed to function,
and love's bonds broke
while balance choked--
like Jerico's walls
crumbling amidst core's calamity.
Simple steps
seem like strides now
and mountains loom too tall,
and glimmers of grief
glare at me with greed;
yet needs still niggle
in quietude's clutch
as such agony meanders
between breath and beat.
I stand defeated,
reading responses only at my request
and I realise
that our best has already been...
fate sealed separate tomorrows
and as you wave goodbye
with words,
silence swallows the sorrows
that will reside inside me
for infinity.








,thanks so much for sharing this.
your Faerie
