Without Love

Twirling memories churn the dust settled on my welcome mat, spinning dreams thought lost...

today swing wide the door

once locked by betrayal.

Spider webbed windows...

confrontation ignored.

Throw open the curtains,

break through shattered glass...

Hearts will not mend without love.

Night Tears

Tears avalanche

snowballing

across the wilderness

of me...

frozen relief

the formalness of grief

Spring's thaw...

weeps a trickling rain...

gentle to my earth

April showers bloom the lilacs...

busied bees boil golden brew

honey coated

liquid sunshine

in my mind

a storm

of truth.

Night tears run their course...

bleeding ache from

heart flushed eyes,

puddles made

from sadness drained...

letting go

of you.

Daisy petal plucking

questions surface

pearly tears to

flood away

love's

passion

shared.

Forget

Release

Discard

dead blooms

of flowers past

Weary eyes rest

in resigned slumber

while my soul sleeps to

dream new love.
