No Heart, No Home

by Singthesorrow   Apr 2, 2008


Gone without a sound.
Without a trace, without a face.

Gone from my memory.
Like you were nothing but a faint dream.

Cut from dark shadows, and pasted in a sunbeam.
But I, I can see right though.
See past your shimmering gleam.

You are the death that lingers on my soul.

Good enough.
Fake love, and cheap promises.
They were good enough.
I believed.

You were something.
You use to be.
My everything.

Pain takes the form of a smile.
Lies become my breath.

Home is where the heart is at.
Where is my heart?
I have no shelter from your eyes.

Breathing ceases.
Lies become my shelter.
Lies hide your eyes.

Hides my connection.
Though the window of your soul.

    Your metaphors are exquisite ... I've read your other poems, and while I find you a simplistic writer, your words are still effective and, I'm assuming, coming straight from the heart.
    Good job!
