Dressed in mourning
Sipping on tears
Thinking of the sunrises missed
Words unspoken
A heart torn in two
There are no more birthdays
Just rain soaked eyes
The evening breaks
The heart isn’t whole
Thinking of your sunset

An ocean I cried
The day my Rose lost her petals
Falling leaves outside
Raining teardrops inside
September left me in pieces
Made a river from my tears
The day my Rose wilted
Gray clouds outside
Blue on the inside

Torn by unspoken words, left to slowly unfold….
Torn by unspoken words, left to slowly unfold….
Democracy cowering
We head for trouble
Inevitable fall out
History wiped from the map..

Paper heart
Not made of muscle
Too easily torn
Tatters in the wind
My paper heart
Cuts inside of me
Oceans for eyes
Smile set with the sun
Paper heart folded
Prayers fly up
My paper heart
Didn’t break
It tore
Paper heart
Not made of muscle
Too easily torn
Tatters in the wind
My paper heart
Cuts inside of me
Oceans for eyes
Smile set with the sun
Paper heart folded
Prayers fly up
My paper heart
Didn’t break
It tore
Empty bedrooms
Leave the light on
Silent voices
Echo through the hallway
The house bones creak
Quiet reverb
Long gone laughter
Ring in my ears
Still photographs
Memories play
Quiet reverb
The clock ticks
Ghosts take up space
In the quiet reverb
Empty bedrooms
Leave the light on
Silent voices
Echo through the hallway
The house bones creak
Quiet reverb
Long gone laughter
Ring in my ears
Still photographs
Memories play
Quiet reverb
The clock ticks
Ghosts take up space
In the quiet reverb
