They fall from her heart
But make no sound
Salty rain brims from eyes of sadness
Then flow in quick unison
Down her cheeks
As her soul weeps seeking comfort
For only God knows how much she hurts
As He collects her silent tears.
Time
Some of the saddest moments in time
Are as dreams drown when they crash
Upon the rocks of reality
No longer feasible for whatever the reason
Not sustainable with in the realm of forever
They come up gasping for air
But to no avail
There is no oxygen to revive them
To many memories and long ago hopes
Have weighed them down
They have sent them into the dark chasm
Of the foamy brine of no more
There is sadness at the loss of time
But this can’t be helped
Age and life dance together upon the sea
Of what might have been
Only to lay like seaweed upon the shore
Never again to sway in the currents or riptides
Time has shipwrecked the dream.
Pages
I guess it is time to watch life turn some pages
Nothing stays the same and life moves on
It’s not content to hover amidst broken dreams
On crinkled paper and faded print
Sentences rewrite themselves
As promises drift away
Hope tries to hang on as best it can
But tires so easily with it’s loss of strength
Believing and doubt walk together on this path
What will the story say on the last page?
With the final line printed for all to read
I know, it will say, “The End” and close the book.
