Information Romeo

A pilot write of love lost.

Free flowing tears
The sun makes its break
Reclaims the winter sky
my heart founders in night

She lies cold
In the grip of my mind
This lifeless love I cannot lay to rest
Ash, sackcloth, and mourners must wait

We gather here though not together
The funeral of the dream
I stare into the dun
I cannot will it back below the horizon

I walk in this frigid world
Ice freezing to my brow
Falling stars and northern lights
Proclaiming look to no one

Upon awakening
I retrace my steps
Into the sky I run
The sun smiles, the mountains laugh
Toiling for the day to be done
To be done
Just be done

I steel myself to forget her
In this day of bitter cold
Yet the more dirt I throw upon her
The more I unearth

Silent she stares at me from the grave
Her mouth whispers Romeo
I choke back Juliet
Whispering my own fate

I swallow hard my bitter regret
Not at having loved her
But the fact we ever met
I breathed life when I breathed her in
Breathing me in she met our death
Now the mountains laugh and the sun she smiles
Cause the warmth is hers to keep
Cold as steel I walk this earth
Wondering of love I could not keep

. you unearth a unique hue of poetry in your words ...

. there's sadness but no bitterness ... IMHO ...

. i guess you would eventually find the love that's residing in your words ...

. it never left you ...
