Silent tears. Leaving just
Swallowed sorrow. None can mend.
Wilted flowers. Lets pretend.
Nothing happened. Once again.

Topic: anguished



Broken words. Shattered trust.
Silent tears. Leaving just
Swallowed sorrow. None can mend.
Wilted flowers. Lets pretend.
Nothing happened. Once again.

The economy of words give this strength, like a well placed punch from a boxer.
Your work continues to enchant me, it never seems to diminish

Hi SW,
Brevity is often more elegant than Profusion. This short, sharp, delicate poesy is artistry in abundance.
Great to read your work again, SW.

Having lived this first hand this brought back
memories. Its been almost 9yrs since the night she
dropped the bomb on me. And its a story that is
better saved for a PM than for a comment box.
Time just builds up a callus of sort to help us deal
with the pain but it is God and love that is the great healer if we just let it work before doing something brash
because of the anger and the pain. Without God and
Love nothing is possible. I agree that you are on a roll
here.
