The Heart Cast Aside
I stand and shiver,
it is just the way I live now.
The tide is closing in,
it is drowning my burning heart.
Clouding thoughts,
a foggy life.
I feel like you were a dream,
your intense blue eyes.
Laughs have flown,
my smiles gone.
You wear yours for her alone,
She’s the one you’ve found.
No clarity of any kind.
Like the winds in the cove
you haunt my mind.
You have made me unknown.
My sunny days
now dark and arresting.
Drenched in grey
