Secret Sorrow

August 28th 2007 18:40
I’m empty
How sad. An epitaph upon a stone.
It tells the world, yet stands alone.
What was the purpose of a life?
A jilted husband, a betrayed wife?
No one will know.
Cold rock and empty space.
A silent tomb, a quiet place.
The hollow echo that mocks the heart.
Who broke a promise? What price was paid?
To cause a soul in sorrow laid.
Within a bed of grief.
Dust will gather, moss will grow
Years will pass and people go
Forever will we guess

Paper Doll

Paper Doll
Flat, forever emotionless
Always wears a different dress
Your face remains the same
Wind-up toy
Ever ready, right on cue
Eager to be told what to do
And go by any name
Momma’s pet and Daddy’s pride
You can hide what lurks inside
Your feelings do not show
Let them gawk and let them stare
Until they realize to beware
Of what you really know

Elder Advancement

August 28th 2007 18:35
A silent knock on the heart
An arthritic scratch
Age creeps, then pounces
Youth jeers then flees
Memories, First clear as crystal,
Muddy with advancing years
Regrets abound with hopeless ifs
Sadness takes a seat on the front porch.
Golden Years or Tarnished age
Serene Countenance hides eternal rage
Lost Eden
