Crush

by Twisted Heart   Jun 12, 2007


From the inside of a shadow
creeping up a vacant wall
Along the thoughts that fill the mind
a sadness to recall

About to take a journey
from the soul that lost the fight
A heart that sunk in darkness
from the capture of the night.

The memories seem distant
from the mind they try to flee
Tossed upon the broken soul
and lost in misery.

Too many days left hungry
for a love she thought she knew
But pain is strong inside her heart
for what her soul went through.

Night slumber brings the nightmares
of a wound that cannot heal
The shattered glass of heartache
sinking in the hurt she feels.

Too many times she held her breath
and prayed the pain would ease
But still the wounds inflicted
was the crush of fantasies.

    You write so beutifully. This piece is so sad and heart felt.

    Night slumber brings the nightmares
    of a wound that cannot heal
    The shattered glass of heartache
    sinking in the hurt she feels.

    This stanza captures the pain of heartache so well.
    Excellent job!
