Enter The Darkness

​

A cold chill runs through me, my body quivers

As a light breeze picks a strand of hair,

Lightly resting it across my tear stained cheek

My heart crumbling to a dust, laying on my soul.

The brightness in my eyes faded to darkness

An emptiness falls, filling me with turmoil,

My heart screams out with a pain to not be hidden

Only buried deep within my mind, a forgotten past.

Daylight dims, a quietness creeps in replacing it

My eyes focus on the vanishing horizon,

As I hear the sound of rippling water on the shore

Turn like thunderous pounding against a rocky cliff.

A silent scream tears through me, as I curl up tight

Laying motionlessly, a soft dew settles on me,

Nature blanketing me in its tender solitude

Trying to console me, protect me from the searing pain.

Soft tears fall from my eyes, Scarring the rock beneath me

Sleep slowly taking me as I vow into the darkness

That love will never enter the caverns of my heart again,

That loneliness will be the only friend in my soul.
