The Return of The Piped Piper

Years ago trust was thrown into the winds and blown out to sea-
Tossed upon perilous reefs
A tender heart was torn while weakening an innocent soul.
If I should turn an ear to the wind will I once again hear
the melodies of the piped piper?
Tantalizing music dancing down the hallways of my heart-
Bringing shy smiles and tinkling laughter to a heart that was once
filled with heated passion.
Now cautious and unsure of this smiling piped piper-
I wonder what this man is about?
His twinkling eyes, welcoming me back into his life.
As warm caressing hands reach out in friendship.
I drift back in time and gaze into your friendly eyes-
I weaken as I move on misty memories to another day so long ago.
Remembering those fiery words that you threw at me with ease.
Words smashing around my heart like
a
stabbing mist of frozen darkness.
I was thrown into the shadows of despair, bleeding and broken.
Tears dampening the crying earth that could not shelter the pain
I held within.
Now once again you try to weave your magic-
To drag me in to your web of deceit.
You broke the bond of trust-
My heart is frozen
You are
No longer
The whimsical piped piper of yesterday.
Only a fading dream that is stored in the remembrance
of
mystical melodies.

Love BonBon

Hi Passing Shadows
I keep reminding myself be careful, be careful. I'm like a cartoon when someone starts to fall on ice. My feet sliding and sliding in the wrong direction.
Thanks for reading

Hey Bon, what a nice surprise, good to see you in here again, like home...and a comfy one at that...as this poem speaks what many of us can remember, been there, done that...placing trust in another, is sometimes difficult after they've misplaced that trust, but friends is a great way to start...lovely writing...hugs to you and best wishes to...
Love Lee J.

Pied Piper.....who led the rats....this rat leader says, earplugs, dear lady....earplugs. Be deaf to that melody, because the lake is much to near, and the piper is only dancing.

Good advice Ratleader.......I think I'll run out and buy earplugs and blinders.LOL
Piped Piper sure does play beautifil music.
Maybe I should just buy a CD it's safer.
