A desperate hearts words

A desperate heart’s words

Abandoned and floating

 

Like falling leaves delicately embraced

And suddenly carried away

On a warm summer breeze

 

Whirling and drifting

With confusing excitement

Torturous expectations

And blissful discourse

 

Playfully escaping their meaningless desires

And emotional emptiness

 

Enjoying the turbulent caress of the breeze

But not wanting to believe

Its promise of warmth and commitment

 

For these words were only to be spoken

And never heard
