Fallen angel, shattered glass

by Dancing Rivers   Sep 23, 2014


Listen to the sound, of the shattered glass.
Look into the chasm, of this broken heart.
All I've ever wanted-all hope I've ever shown-
for a love so strong, it transcends the unknown.
Breaking boundaries every day,
With every word, that you or I would say.
But this glass has been emptied,
There's nothing left of, that whimsical dream.
You wrapped that glass so tightly I'm your fist..
Squeezing harder, till it shattered, into nothingness.
All those star struck memories, all those heart shaped dreams,
Have fallen from the sky, dead as autumn leaves.
So many words were left unsaid.
So many fierce, fiery tears unshed.
All that I want is to hear you say "I'm sorry"
I don't want your excuses, I'm sick of worrying...
Worrying that I caused my pain,
That I caused you, unwittingly, to walk away.
Alas its over now, life must go on.
Somehow I'll find a reason, to stay strong.
No matter what this life may give me,
I'll always believe
That somehow, sometime in this life,
You truly loved me, enough to make me your wife,
That you loved me enough to put me first
Take the bullet for me, no matter how it hurt,
Alas its just a dream, nothing but a myth.
This is my life now, the reality I live with,
Goodbye for now, for yesterday and tomorrow.
Goodbye to you, your memory, my sorrow.
One day I'll see your face, another stranger, in another place.
The stranger with whom,I tempted fate.

      Thank you Sarah,I appreciate that a lot, stay strong honey and keep writing, also may I just make a suggestion?I think that your poem"child abuse"should rather go under explicit,as it deals with sensitive subject matter,I must say that it was a shockingly beautiful poem, and that I can relate in part, though not entirely, ti the events that occurred, also if you don't mind my asking, is it a personal, experienced poem or just a random poem?
