A Reason to Run

by Twisted Heart   Feb 16, 2009


No stars to cross the lovers' knot
Nor twine the soul so fierce
As passion in a slumber caught
And heart is full of tears
In tune the mind begins to drift
On memories remade
An icy chill of pain will shift
As twilight starts to fade

Inside the heart of one so true
Reclaimed the ember burnt
Of words that seared the soul in two
A lesson well was learned.
Brand mind to call upon the soul
As sure as life has come
Now distance peaks the churning cold
To leave the chamber numb

The love has died inside yourself
No chance for soul to heal
The broken chain of loss was dealt
The memories surreal
Of shattered dreams that died in vain
And rays that left the sun
In darkness now you cry in pain
Then close your heart and run.

    This is a wonderful poem. So sad.

    The love has died inside yourself
    No chance for soul to heal
    The broken chain of loss was dealt
    The memories surreal
    Of shattered dreams that died in vain
    And rays that left the sun
    In darkness now you cry in pain
    Then close your heart and run.

    These words just went straight to my heart.
    Excellent job!
    Love Cindy
