On the ledge
Lost to the night sky
She, alone
Sits, waiting
With starry eyes gazing fast
At her beloved

I asked a millions time before
My words, fell on deaf ears
I try to give the benefit of doubt
But this, has been for years
Broken promises, over again
Please don’t tell me more lies
Trying to cope with the day to day
All I want to know is, why?
Maybe I should forget all this
Perhaps it’s time I move on
But I wonder, did you notice
That all this time, I was gone
Imploding, in my very own thoughts
Since you never bother to listen
Holding back the pain and regret
My tear streaked face, aglisten
Now I’ve stopped asking, I give up
There’s no point in trying to find
Whatever is left of my barren heart
Remains secret, so surely, maligned

Looking, not for gloom
I must seek the rising sun
Casting eyes upward
Knowing, I will find the light;
Warm comfort in these dark times

Golden droplets glow
Shimmering ever softly
In the pitch of night

Fingers crawling, cross the sky
Grasping shadows, as they fly
Without care, they go awry
In the darkness, lights, adorning
When at last, the dawn of day
Awakens where it longs to play
It’s decided, it cannot stay
Gone quickly, before morning
Yet, to return, and start anew
Fingers twisted, turned, askew
And we know not what to do
Its evil deeds, suborning
Alas, the storm, is surely we
And we watch, but never see
What has become, of you, and me
Best to heed its warning
September Writing Prompt – #25 When the storm is raging
