Life reverberates with endless screams
Awaiting honesty in heart shaped dreams
And as I peer into distant blue skies
I find myself clinging to your forgotten lies
I was your Jester, a forlorn clown
when you turned my world upside down
I could smile with this painted face
And I could leave this silent place
Yet all I do is cower and sigh
As my broken sad life passes by
A solitary tear breaks this heart
Suffice it to say “Forever apart”
Now I cling to sanity’s wondrous song
Knowing to this world I should not belong
Closing my eyes without a care
Falling forever into empty cold air
Goodbye to you and your callas grin
It’s time for eternity, so let nothing begin…

My Dear brother,
What a read this one is. This is heart wrenching! I hope you are ok.... Remember my brother
Nevermore~ Nevermore alone, as we have each other, we have a bond unlike others...
Even though this is heart wrenching, it shines like the light found in knowing you.
Best of luck in this contest!
and love

This is sad and one can feel the pain. You have written another poem that shines like you do. Hope this was just for the contest, as you are special.
