Darkness

Darkness covers me like a blanket ,
I toss I turn waiting Solstice for more light
Losing myself in the chanting
And light of a candle
I no longer can handle
Holding my breath ,
Waiting for you to turn towards me
It will never be what is was
Your turning more grey as I walk away
More angry and bitter a man who's eyes of blue
Used to feel so true ....the facade your played
I gave you my all ....time cannot be replaced
Heart that is ripped and shredded
Tears  that are frozen to my face
Shoes I no longer can lace
I have no place ....I drift like a skiff that's lost it's mooring
Mourning what was , what wasn't , what cannot be
You being truthful  and faithful to me  
And you poor another drink
My van gough  flute playing man
Hands that no longer stroke my brow or my hair
I now accept the pain of you just don't care
Adrift I am in the sea of life
Holding it together , knots I tie ,
Looking for somewhere to drop this anchor
As the storm clouds roll in

  1. Your words are so beautiful as they describe a love that once was that robbed a slice of your life. But than never is a moment taken from us it is lived deeply and we rise from the ashes of our pain with the warming of the solstice sun. Thank you for sharing your muses with me, I am honored to feel into your stories so I can see my sister more clearly.
