Elvin magic flies about

Wistful thoughts crying out

Tearing at her soul, exposed

Longing to forget these woes

Of lovers lost

And left behind

Of broken hearts

For which she pined

Nights where bodies

Intertwined

Locked forever

In her mind

On the bed sheets, a ring of gold
Along with a hand written note

No idea what she should be sorry for
Still, he felt a lump grow, in his throat

The small circle, of polished gold
Cast a shadow, in the shape of a heart

Suddenly, it dawned on him
His life, was falling apart

His state of affairs, no longer relevant
She was gone, without even goodbye

His heart, broken, into shattered pieces
When he realized, it had all been a lie

I hear your sounds, in the silence of the night

The wee hours call to me, your song, so right

The one you played incessantly, day after day

The one I played, to comfort me, when you went away

This memory I have of you, sings forever, in my heart

It lets me keep you close to me, now that we’re apart

Until the day, we meet again, your song shall ever play

Upon my broken heart strings, there, is where they’ll stay

I Let You Throw Daggers ~ #dark #poetry

I let you throw daggers at me, from afar

You watched, as my heart slowly bled

Piercing my chest, this imminent pain

I wondered if you wished I was dead

The anger in your eyes, unsettling

They were blank, I was no longer there

You killed me, without saying a word

I knew now, you just didn’t care

Years of fighting within myself

Excuses, kept me hidden in the dark

Trying to cover the scars on my soul

Sadly, your hate left its mark

I Let My Heart Go Free ~ #poetry #NovemberWriting

A sudden breeze, took me by surprise

I let go, my heart, set free

I watched it sail, into the sky

Til I could no longer see

Into the wind, it wallowed

Enjoying the ride, while I cursed

I stood there hoping it would return to me

For I knew, at some point, it would burst

A tear fell from my cheek

As I watched it slip away

I wore my heart out on my sleeve

On that very fateful day

When I lost the only thing I knew

My tears, now overflowing

I am left to find, what I could never replace

And I sigh with the winds, still blowing
