Time

The lonely eyes of my saddest heart understands time feels eternal unlike a ticking clock past and present never seem to move Every moment is here and gone one after another...vanishing without motion as they form infinite realities in an imagined world Where songbirds once sang before my hollowed-out eyes crossed the boundaries of emptiness seeking refuge from the darkest days that haunt my heart's yesterdays When it lays restless under the stars of lost nights and crawls with its memories through the empty shell of my soul holding flickering ash in the orb of my eyes to light, the dark filled path deep within my heart so I may see your face painted on its tear-stained walls from memory 6/30/20 contest Time-8 word challenge words... time, moment, clock, ticking past, present, eternal, infinite sponsor Dear Heart

Your emotional lines held my interest until the end, Frederic. Thinking that time "crawls with its memories through the empty shell of my soul" Your poem is worthy of a first place.
