rage and desperation
wearing the dead like a winter coat
    keeping them close
                                 trying to warm their souls already gone

covering their graves with unshed tears
the earth a silent witness

no solace to be found
in not letting go

nighttime sounds: an owl in a tree,
wind rustling the remaining leaves
gnarly branches,
black against the moon

the sweetest dreams,
taking residence in my heart

you & I
an impossible possibility
the sheets will not reveal my secrets

In silence

never would there evermore
a song upon a breeze
for music has forsaken us
went lost among the trees

now darkness has surrounded us
and vanquished all the light
in silence now we just await
the visitor in the night

casting my eyes to ground
I find our morning shadows fading
dark clouds have gathered to shade our sun
we own our separate thoughts
both wrought with guilt

I love you
but my heart beats out of sync

let the rain pour down
I am now ready to drown
