undone…

Source: We Heart It

I release the dust

of your soul to the

Universe

 

I return you to the

stars from whence

you came

 

I remove all ties

that once united us

our souls no longer

touch

our hearts no longer

beat as one

 

undone…

Dreams…

Source: We Heart It

We all have them

Our own for good or bad

Joint at times

But they are

Always there…

Always with us…

 

Dreams…

 

For each of us

searching for those 

parts of ourselves…

of others…

wanted and unwanted

 

Dreams…

 

Keep us going

Keep us searching

Keep us sane – or not

Looking deep into

our inner most 

passions…

wants…

soul…

 

Do you 

      Dare

              to Dream?

The Lamp

Source: We Heart It

Meant to hold

darkness at bay

 

The lamp…

stood for so

much more

 

A symbol of 

prosperity…

wealth…

 

Something almost

idolized…

worshiped…

 

Yet…

 

Held only the

true meaning for 

those with a

pure and open

Heart…

Hands…

Source: We Heart It

The hands that 

held me…

nurtured me…

guided me…

 

Are long

        Gone…

 

The hands that

gently led me on

a warm Autumn

afternoon under 

a canopy of fiery

leaves and

sheltered me…

taught me…

protected me…

 

Are long

        Gone…

 

These hands once

held by love

Now are aged…

Freckled…

Lonely…

Will never hold 

the hands of 

a child…

another lover…

 

Those hands 

remain…

 

Yet…

 

All others

Are long

        Gone…

Death…

Source: We heart it

Sightless eyes

Porcelain skin

Arms folded

 

My broken heart

on your sleeve

 

Nothing left

An empty house

Bits and pieces

of a life gone wrong

 

No soul…

*NOTE: The series of poems in the current chapter I am reading each day (500 poems/500 days) deal with death … this is my take on the subject.

 

The Day…

Source: We Heart It

Today…

Began like so many others…

 

Late September

Crisp air

Clear skies

A blush on the

Eastern Horizon

 

But…

 

Today is unlike

any other

In that it will 

never happen again

 

Once it is gone

It’s over…

And…

Only a piece 

of History

 

Perhaps it will

be remembered fondly…

Perhaps forgotten

Completely…

Change…

Source: Unknown

Just as the seasons

change so do our hearts

They can close down

to everything…

to everyone…

hardened like steel

refusing to break

 

But…

 

Just when it seems

all hope is gone

 

And…

 

The heart will

never find peace again…

never feel love again…

never give love again…

 

The sun breaks through

leading the way to

 

A…

      New Beginning

Traces…

Source: We Heart It

Wandering…

 

Enjoying the coolness

of early the Autumn air

on my skin…

the brilliant blue sky…

a paintbox of colors

resting on the trees

 

Along the way

I feel for 

Traces of You…

Memories…

The life we shared…

 

The warmth of sunshine

filters through leaves

Creating shadows that

Tattoo my skin

And…

Once again…

I can feel you

Leaves…

Source: We Heart It

That Autumn

I saw a blaze of

color against a

brilliant blue sky

 

You took me where

the beauty came

shining through

 

A beauty that can 

only be seen where

the nights are cold

and the afternoons warm

 

Leaves like I have

never seen

Colors I did not

know existed

 

My excitement

through your

eyes reminded me

of Van Morrison 

And…

When the Leaves

Come Falling Down

 

Such a happy time

Neither of us knew

it was soon to end

Smile…

Source: We Heart It

An open window

Lacy curtains gently

blowing in the breeze

 

She turns

Remembering…

That day long ago

 

When…

 

On an afternoon

just like this 

She first gave 

her heart away

 

That was long ago

All she has left

are Memories

 

And…

 

She smiles…
