Silence of a Broken Heart

With great anguish the day began, Death severed love's embrace A life of promises and plans With one last breath the time we had together erased With trembling hands he held himself tight Tears rolling down his cheeks The stinging tears hit the ground as they rolled off his face His only love turned on him Leaving him in the dust Leaving him behind as she flew up into the sky Not willing to say a goodbye The harsh pain was much more than he could bear Wedding bells were soon to ring Her white satin gown draped across the bed Collecting dust by now, But now he wears a suit of black To say his goodbye's Each night his pillows' wet with tears The devastating dreams are slow to part Now in his eyes, The heartache is still the silence of a broken heart.
