Lost Soul
~
A lonely moon kissed by
the sky
as rain began to fall
broken hearted rainbows
all colors faded now
high atop the mountain
were secrets in the wind
shadows stalked her
being
tall maples wore a grin
a raspy sound echoed
near
leaves danced around her
feet
trees stood tall with
arms outstretched
along the babbling creek
for many years she loved
this place
the trees, the grass and
fern
'n always loved the
wildlife
birds humming nature's
tune
but now she felt a
loneliness
hung o'er her head like
clouds
'n so like weeping
willows
just let the teardrops
fall
reflections 'pon the
water
appeared like looking
glass
brushed along it's edges
came mem'ries from her
past
along the path of sorrow
their footprints in the
sand
thinking back,
rememb'ring
walking, hand in hand
her eyes had lost the
sparkle
were empty like her
heart
life had no more purpose
light had turned to dark
hands of time kept
ticking
each moment lasted long
so many broken pieces
no way of moving on
her lover of a past
tense
stole each and ev'ry
dream
destroyed her worth and
beauty
poor soul has died, it
seems
like roses lose their
luster
when frozen in the snow
scattered thoughts of
'morrow
vacant is sun's glow
