Promises spoken in the dark

Words from lips lie cold and stark

Forgotten, as quickly as they’re said

Breathless, still, as we lie in bed

Turned away, no longer embraced

Satin nights that cannot be replaced

With a fire, once burning inside the heart

Slowly extinguished, as we grow apart

Broken Vow

Broken Vow, hurt, lost love, mourning, Night Owl Poetry, poems, poetry

Washed away with the tide
Memories of him still abide
On the shores of yesterday

Like a statue she stands
As the currents expand
Waiting to take her away

A castle in the distance
Reaches out with insistence
She waits by the side of the shore

Filled with a sadness
She slips into madness
Vowing to love never more

Dressed in black, she does mourn
From her soul, she is torn
All that she hoped for, destroyed

Jagged rocks rake her feet
As she sighs in defeat
Her heart now a cold, lifeless void

He left me a rose

Lying upon the railing

Of the balcony where we once stood

The symbol of everlasting love

The flower of passion…and pain

Friday Fantasy ~ Time Slips Away

death, lomging, lost love, minutes, moment, mourning, Night Owl Poetry, poems, poetry, soul, time, Time Slips Away

Sinking in the Moment
Lost in the Minutes
Longing Again for that day
Lifeless and Barren
The Sands of my Soul
Mourning, as Time Slips away

Unending seconds
Unravel my Heart
Searching to Find you again
As I sit here alone
In an Instant I know
My Longing has all been in Vain

This Frozen Heart

apathy, broken heart, lost love, Night Owl Poetry, poems, poetry, sacrifice, This Frozen Heart

Will it ever Melt?
This Frozen Heart
That Burns inside
Longing, Waiting
Time Abating

Fleeting Moments
That kept us Apart
Wandering, Jaunting
Teasing, Taunting

Memories lost
The Sacrifice made
Yielding, Foregoing
Forever not Knowing

If this Heart of mine
Now Icy with Rime
Will ever find Fire again
Apathy Callously
Melts Deep inside of me
