False Hope

There’s a disconnect

A false hope Implanted

In the mind

A slight quiver

Faceless worry

Ripped the truth

From disdain

The Worst of Me

The worst of me

Entomb in the forge of night

Tearful eyes

Still seek the truth

Sentence reduce

The forgotten

Remain paralyzed©

Forever Night

sadness

Etched in her eyes

A forever pain

A feeble trembling

when light dims and

Hearts crashed

When Nothing remain

But the mourners

And a mother

Gathering the remnant

In shaky hands

Her only  reprieve became

Bitter tears

and the heat

of a forever night©

Revenge

Revenge taken

Fingers held to the flame

Burning up

On the inside

Man made walls

Could not keep me out

I do not come in peace

let me show you my scars

And the pain still entomb

within my heart

This day is black

for my eyes can only see

The darkness you imposed

within me©

Poetry Today

Empty Cradle

Empty cradle
Rocking
By the fireside
Silent tears
Fall silently
Barren hands
Long to hold
The forgotten
Painful memories
Held Tight
The light is no more
Receding joy
No longer my comfort
Scarred womb
Cried out
Hollow tears
Disconnect the soul
Empty cradle
My forever torment©
