NIGHT WIND

Distressful notes of pain Strained with tears of plight Echo through the silent night Filling the empty spaces in my heart. Like a tribute song at a funeral The notes constantly rise and fall. Like spaces in a poem and dots in prose The wind stammers hope to my heart. Amidst my pain from the sudden loss I still sense the night wind urging a pause To my worries and troubled beating Of a heart shattered beyond repair. The night wind whispers hope To a heart drowning. Leaves and wings play rhapsodies Of the end and start of past stories.
