Tomorrow Will be a Memory

The wind speaks in tongues
With signs hidden in the night’s languid mood
Under the moon’s smile
Where shadows spot errs and humility
Through the eyes of truth blurred to feign
Double vision in shattered glasses leaked in vain
A punching bag of invisible souls
Sleeping but not able to awake
Crying but shedding no tears
Sad but framed in a permanent grin
A pause between breaths and days
Watching destiny triumph over hope
As fear is embraced
Moments before that final kiss
When passion escapes the lips of lovers
To silently whisper through open windows,
Sins taken for granted
And lives misunderstood.

Marcel

Oh I just wanted to tell you that this piece is beyond any doubt, one of those most beautiful ( yet painfully sad pieces I have read for the longest time. Your words reached into the depths of my soul. Outstandingly talented.

I'm always so happy to have you and your poetry back home Keith.
This time, a hauntingly beautiful insight...expressive lines.

And so it is.....a memory.  I do believe
there are days that I might be more happy
if all of the negative memories could be
dealth with and sent far away into the
cosmos where they might freeze and become
useless .... BUT,  that would be a mistake,
wouldn't it?  

Nicely done....as always!
