eye lids heavy
weighed down
by the pouring rain
throbbing
crying
outside
her window pane
how can this be
thoughts
spilling over
the paper cup
of reality
she thought
she had a steady
grip on
obviously not
sitting
contemplating
this life
even the future
tastes bitter
when shaken
not stirred
today
seems so distant
yesterday
a blur
when she
was so positive
she had
heard him correctly
how daft can one be
when she no longer
listens to her dreams
and when
there is no doubt
in her mind
that there is
NO
such thing as
LOVE
but she swears
she heard him correctly
when he had
whispered
prematurely
soft
in her ear...

eye lids heavy
weighed down
by a simple
fickle brush
of fate
throbbing
crying
wondering
why he
hasn't called for weeks...
how daft can one be?
when obviously
I love you...shouldn't even mean a thing


If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

The matters of love make us so vulnerable, they have to, really.  This just makes me ache...good writing, Ceinwyn.  ~K~

ceinwyn...Very touching write. Sadly  enjoyed. If only we could take a pill to cure a heartache. Sometime I really believe that's why I write, to empty my heart of the ache it feels at times...Paul

Oh, Kris! Now I understand your reply to one of my poems regarding washing your tears away. This kind of pain reaches to your very core--it can immobilize you and drain your spirit energy--as well as mental, physical & emotional!!!

You deserve better treatment than this! You truly do, Dear One.

Loving, healing hugs,
Linda

P.S. You did a wonderful job of expressing your feelings.

*shaking head* I'm speechless. This was absolutely excellent.

wounded and broken and hurting.... what scares me is that I'm starting to just not care, except that I wish I could cry the pain away....
