You were a temporary thought, I think

The kind that blows in with the breeze

And departs just as quickly

Enough to ruffle my mind

Like the shaking of the leaves

As they quake in the morning air

It makes me drift away with them

Perchance, to catch that one balloon

Released, before it was ever caught

Exquisite crimson

An ever present angel

Brightening the gray

You’ve felt the flames of a lovers scorn

Those hands that touched your heart, forlorn

Yet, you haven’t felt, my fire, my soul

When I slowly burn, and take control

Of your heart, that once, was full of doubt

Is now a heart, so full, devout

For you’ve entered into my welcoming arms

Where I’ll safely keep you, away from harm

Without a Trace ~ #poetry

Disenchanted, my heart disbands

As pieces fall into your hands

Memories cast aside as none

Broken more, become undone

Once so perfect, in every way

Now so bitter, we cannot stay

We’ve fallen into this empty space

Love’s gone forever, without a trace

See the sunlight dance

As the maple grows
