Rich brown hair flowing behind in the wind
Lavender eyes filled with crystal tears
Her beauty was once that of a star

Her spirit had shone bright
Now dulled from deception
She watches the seagulls play
How young and fresh she had felt

How happy her life was once
Emptiness and sorrow fill her heart
Contemplating taking a step off the edge
Ending this pain that nagged within

She stepped nearer looking down at the rocks
Watching the water beating and retreating
Throwing a lavender rose into the water
Then walking away she will live to love

Another day

Standing on the cliff overlooking the ocean
Rich brown hair flowing behind in the wind
Lavender eyes filled with crystal tears
Her beauty was once that of a star

Her spirit had shone bright
Now dulled from deception

How young and fresh she had felt

How happy her life was once
Emptiness and sorrow fill her heart
Contemplating taking a step off the edge
Ending this pain that nagged within

She stepped nearer looking down at the rocks
Watching the water beating and retreating
Throwing a lavender rose into the water
Then walking away she will live to love

Blessed Be...

Nostalgia and despair diverge when the 'will to love...' cuts new pathways...
May there ever be 'Lavender Roses' for you to reconnaissance the depths.

Bravo

Peace

My dear friend I can so much relate to the emptiness and sorrow that fill ones heart.

Throwing a lavender rose into the water
Then walking away she will live to love

Another day

I hang on too in hope that someday soon I shall love again. Thanks so much for posting this my dear friend.
love n hugs,
sue m

Very good work here, i can hear the water hitting the rocks below, see her standing at the edge with tears in her eyes. Oh, my heart aches for her. Nicely done, very good imagery, I will continue to read more of your work.

Love can be found in the most obvious of places, don't look too hard pal :)
