Frozen Tears

Your frozen tears have collected like a trove of treasures,

 Begotten in sadness and yet held in such esteem.

Diamonds could hold no more value.

Born of Shadow

Born of shadow, of darkest seed,

your branches reach to the heavens

in search of what... Redemption?

Shades of Love

Color me red. Color me violet.

Color me each and every shade of love.

 

Gone

The day has come and gone without a glimpse of you,

No sight of your smile, nor scent of your sweet perfume.

All that remains is your quickly fading warmth.

 

Your Love

 

I  was silence and shade until I met you,

Wisps of smoke and air until you looked my way.

It was your love that made me whole.

PTSD

When you hold the pain in, I also feel the pressure.

Those sleepless nights of yours were not suffered alone.

Longing

 

 

That sound I hear, the one that keeps me up at night,

Is it my heartbeat or the sound of you walking away?
