Whispers of the Wind
Breath catches in the wind
A life a love that appears no more
A love that questions all boundaries of hope
Of happiness, of eternity
Face upturned towards the sun forever shadowed in darkness
An eclipse that stops the heart
Whispers upon a breeze carried out to sea
Of dreams so close to reality
Questions arise upon my lips
Footsteps fall behind me
Warm hands upon my waist
Soft fingers graze my neck
Hands so small in mine as to smother completely
Opal skin like snow
Lips like a bloody rose
A rose that represents my heart
Lashes that frame a soul
Warmth that fills my chest
Expanding, exploding
A blinding light that outshines the darkness
The darkness within that renders her helpless
A battle for a heart ripped in two
Wounds invisible but felt unto the victim
A tear that falls
Pain caused but yet to be endured
She falls backward into the raging ocean
Tumbling down into an oblivion
Of waves brewed by turmoil and hate
Arms outstretched to embrace
To love and cherish
Grasping at air
Gone, gone is my heart, my being, my soul
Rustling behind me
A soft noise on the cliff
Whispers of the wind.
