A Tear Scripts Down Unsaid Vows
I
I am
Me or I
And a name
It is all I can feel
An awareness so real
But I am never enough
The most I can be is my half
My attention is in many pieces
I flip between desirous to emptiness
Trapped between my shadow and ghost
My path has never changed but I feel lost
My road to love passed though rose gardens
Petals were illumined by stars when it darkened
A beautiful fate beckoned with every eastern glow
Sunset crowned days of romance with a lining of gold
The days and nights became wheels spinning in the mud
Felt like dismay of a rose flower withering within its bud
As my undying love keeps breathing in a lovelorn heart
My hands got too slippery to hold on to my beloved
I still visualize the glittery of a band on her finger
Before I see a glitter moisten a side of my eye
A dream is lost in a dream as love lingers
Love is true, heartbreak is a lie
A tear scripts down
Unsaid vows
