~ Empty Remains ~
Deep in the darkness my heart still sees
the shadows of night, portrayed
within the memories of the past...
Impressions
reflected, bequeathed by shadows,
mirrored by deceptions,
covered in pain--
In the realms of the mind;
The mirror of the soul--
Through the depths of frustration,
in the midst of anger--
Silent tears burning deep inside,
emptying the soul,
feelings drained,
devoid of spirit, depleted in strength--
The remains of laughter
long forgotten with shadows
of pain taking its place.
The essence of being
no longer present--
Buried within,
layer upon layer.
Shadows forsaken
in the minds' collection,
hollowed through
by spoken silence--
Speaking louder then the
sound of words...
Merely voiced--
Constricting silence binding the soul,
in draining confusion,
betrayals of trust.
The depths of silence
sears the soul,
in wakes of abandon,
caressing softly
whispers of the spirit.
