Silenced Sculptures

 SILENCED SCULPTURES

Inanimate structures of stone,

Forever stranded left alone.

Standing for centuries so long,

Everyone ignores and gets along.

Two sculptures stood together, 

Stayed united in severe weather.

A boy stood admiring the girl,

Her blush, Oh! so easy to be seen;

Even when her skin is coloured pearl.

Lifeless they were, they started speaking,

To live a life, they started believing.

Passionately in love they always stayed,

Only for each other they were made.

Becoming lively, their hearts beat,

Being so close, they never met.

Their hearts spoke words of love,

They felt high, so above.

A day of winter came, 

When her place didn't remain the same.

She was separated from her lovers' gaze,

He spent months in a daze. 

Thunder were his shouts,

Their love was true, no doubt.

Rain drenched him over,

He regretted not being with her closer.

Tears were easy to be seen despite the rain,

His heart was unable to be healed from the tormenting pain.

She was the one who made him feel alive,

No one resembled her, none alike. 

A weeping angel he became,

His love for her he couldn't acclaim.

Better are statues with a loving heart,

Than the humans with a heart so hard.

It's a very fine poem. Bravo

Thank you very much.

A very interesting poetic tale!

I like the idea of two statues, male and female, bound to the earth just beyond each other's loving reach. For all their love they will never be able to consummate it with touch.

I enjoy narrative poems and this one is a nice addition. Well Done.

last lines are really true and we all forget to love each other. We are heartless like statues. Like you make those statues a living creature try to write how we are're playing those statues in the real life.
Amazing thought. thanks for the share dear sister.

I agree my friend.
"A weeping angel he became,
His love for her he couldn't acclaim.
Better are statues with a loving heart,
Than the humans with a heart so hard."
