Roger Roger Poet Sonnet

Broken - 1st Place, Beautiful Or Broken Poetry Contest

Fragile heart that fell on a heart of stone 
Shattered soul was left weeping and broken 
Silence tames the sound of being alone 
Loneliness makes the only word spoken 

Horizon is gray and the dawn is dark 
And the weeping sun shuns a brand new day 
Where gloominess flares up the only spark 
On bed of lilies, the memories lay 

Somber heart weeps for its bleeding glory 
While the autumn wind casts its gusty blow 
Even if yesterday will say sorry 
Sunless days will always bring the sorrow 

For, broken wings may never fly again 
Bleeding scars from wounded soul may remain
