grief

Our need

Submitted by Brianna on Wed, 09/12/2007 - 18:23

My heart is breaking
aching
watching
tears shedding
waters shattering
rough
through storms
deep and cold
churning
the soul.

Crowds wounding,
because they're
hurting
though hiding

Smiles cracked
like broken glass
shatter and fall
into nothing.

The sun is running
through the breeze
burning
shaking trees
trembling knees.

Eyes screaming
of pain and grief
direct at you
the fault.

o solitude of emptiness

O solitude of emptiness
of grief
a hole through your heart
that love makes
when it is betrayed by the loss of Eden
the sudden absence of what should be
as familiar as life
and the glare against your eyes
against your heart
of what should not
and what is making you
cracking
breaking you
