I rummage through my closet
find a story, it opens at last...

Embers burn with malicious intent
the ashes spread a heavy blanket...

Submission date : 2008-08-25
Acaulescent petals float to the ground...

Perforated lines scatter across my life
threatening it's very foundation...

Waves of ice aged glaciers,
erodes the roof of the world...

Disdain scratches at the door,
Terrified voices, hidden, HUSH...

(I never truly understood why I wrote this poem...

From my window seat looking out,
Natures beauty takes my breath...

Music casts a soft lullaby,
Children dance round and round...

With but a penny to show love,
Hearts beat stronger than ever...

My heart once fluttered,
Now stone cold to touch...
