And When Love Came, Last

by Twisted Heart   Nov 24, 2006


A heart has found a refuge, deep inside,
A soul that left a hole, that now has crystallized
Into a shape of shattered dreams, spun among the stars
Looking for a partner, in distances afar.

A song of simple pleasures, now, is lost
Inside the empty shell of a woman, that love forgot,
Forever spinning aimlessly inside her haunted mind
Looking for some comfort, forever lost in time.

She swore no love would find her, weak,
She'd stand against the capture, of her broken dreams
And build the wall around her, a stone upon a stone
Not caring that, she would live, her life so alone

And when love came, last, inside her heart
She didn't even recognize it from the very start,
She sat upon the tip, of the moon, she knew so well
Casting shadows in the light, as the darkness fell.

Vacant eyes have searched, the empty soul
But love has been so distant, it's left her in the cold,
Slumbered pains of heartache, has found no peace within
And so she slips among the falling stars again.

    It is understandable to see why this is one of the top poems. Absolutely great job, the rhythm and flow was flawless and each line allowed the reader to be slowly dipped into the full of the words. Mind-Blowing poem.
