Lilac Untitled

January 19 2008

Icy words of anger
Burn the page
As the pen’s fiery ink
Stains the lines red


The bleeding heart
Turns blue with cold
The unseen soul of love and trust
Suddenly rusted and forgotten

[One voice that must be heard/
The heart no one can see/
Had one been there/
Maybe everything would have been saved]

Silently waiting with patience
Feeling stuck and lost
Within a darkened memory
Frustration suppresses fear

Waiting for what, a sign
A cry of a bird, the light of the moon
Silent companions for the waiting
Who stand forever hopeful

A sound of thunder
In the distance full of fear
An unseen forgotten threat
Fills one’s empty heart with dread

A thing so easy to predict
Something one could ignore
Or forget, a heart holds tight
And memories fade

The lights flicker out
Poison rains from the sky
Melting words from printed pages
And forever hardening hearts

Lilac did cross out somethings but I added them in brackets anyway.
