Broken In Silence

When hearts break
And glasses shatter
All the pieces will scatter
Screaming your name.

Stories left untold
Love will be lost
I have tripped over the edge
Now you watch me fall.

Every rose with it's thorn,
An unattainable beauty
Sweet suffering in love
Nothing remains, just you and me.

Bloody battles are fought
Every reason shall unwind.
Life cannot be relived
Only memories to rewind.

So miles apart,
Yet so close to the heart.
You shall always be in my mind,
Even as Death sings it's lullaby.

What if there's something better out there? The strongest never wear a crown.

This was disheartening to read, but well written and a joy to read.

I'm Bryan btw. I write all sorts of stuff including full-length novels and novellas. You ever need me just drop me a line and/or add me here. Should you continue to post here by adding me as a friend I will be able to read and review your stuff here.

My sympathy goes to you should your poem be personal.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

the subject sees the speaker suffering his or her loss---

i bet they are up there wishing we wouldn't be so sad, but that our emphasis would be to celebrate the life...yet it is so hard...we miss them so much....and that song always has such a sad note.
beautiful poem.
