Shattered Pieces – #poetry – #God

Shards of crystal prisms fly
Broken pieces, its time to die
Left, an empty shell, I cry

Impossible to put back together

Trying to do too many things
Mind elsewhere, disaster brings
Oh, how I wish that I had wings

To escape this stormy weather

Funny, how life keeps its pace
As tears still stain this aging face
I pray to God for saving grace

Please, free me from this tether

Let me float among the clouds
Spread my wings, and cry aloud
My voice, be heard, no longer shroud

My heart, soars, light as a feather

For He does take my feeble hand
Grasps it tightly, a feeling, grand
“Know now, this is what I’ve planned
Fear not, child, the days will get better.”

Nearer the End – #poetry – #NaPoWriMo

I watch the sun set

In a brilliant blaze

Under a sky of stars

I get lost in their haze

Twilight engulfs

My most secret thoughts

As golden rays bury

My mind, distraught

I am captivated

By glorious, rays of light

That take me from morn

Into the night

While I sit here and wonder

What is to be?

When my eyes finally close

What is it I’ll see?

Will my time on this Earth

Be nearer the end?

Or will I still see the light

As thoughts transcend

Higher, like the swing

Which knows no bounds

I fly, for I am no longer

Planted, on the ground

The Silence is Deafening – #poetry of the #lost

“You okay?” He asks,
“Swell”, my reply,
While wistfully staring,
And wondering why

He’d bother to ask,
Does he really care?
Or is it just habit,
Because I am there.

Time spent together,
In silence, creeps by.
No matter how much,
I just no longer try

To engage conversation,
From one, far away,
Who turns off the chatter,
Doesn’t hear what I say.

Perhaps it is me,
Who doesn’t quite hear
The words, left unsaid,
Though, the meaning is clear

So I bury myself,
In a place, tucked away
Where the silence is deafening,
But the Lord hears me pray.
