a whisper drowned in tears,
a sombre lullaby,

Standing on these shores,

My gaze construed my sight,
ablaze into the night,
my dreams of new horizons,
it seems askew forlorn.

As hope has gone away,
I spoke unsung dismay,
that glimmer in the dark,
have simmered and unspark.

The oasis of the heart,
once bliss without a blight,
now sundered and condemned,
dust-choked and harsh-dried land. [comments] => 8 [counter] => 251 [topic] => 43 [informant] => baronhawk [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 19 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

A Whisper Drowned In Tears

I hear it now so clear,
a whisper drowned in tears,
a sombre lullaby,
most bitter of goodbyes.

Standing on these shores,
regretting past befores,

My gaze construed my sight,
ablaze into the night,
my dreams of new horizons,
it seems askew forlorn.

As hope has gone away,

The oasis of the heart,

now sundered and condemned,
dust-choked and harsh-dried land.

The title caught my eye and your poem pulled at the invisible string of emotion inside of me.

A whisper doesn't drown in tears Baronhawk. It makes a sound that is universal and it is heard.

Don't ever give up hope, just keep on writing.

You will love again (this I truly believe) if you will put aside logic and intellect and feel with the huge heart that you write with.

I am playing catch up with your writings.

You keep improving, even when I think you can't possibly write something on a higher level of poetic professionalism.

Well done as usual.

Kie

*sigh*

This is a wonderfully sad piece - and I mean that in a good way. I honestly don't know if it was your sadness or mine that seemed to overtake me as I read this... it was, I guess, exceptionally relatable for me. A "whisper drowned in tears"... gosh... that's so awful in reality and so beautiful in its inclusion here. Very moving, Baronhawk... and very nicely done!

Listening to the whispers,
