Unfound

Thundering, down falls lightening 
Skyward rises  clouds of amber
The thick mist clings to my tears
Ever present trickling down
To sorrowful earth below.

Saltine linear tracks
Climbing so low beyond
All my confusions
Open doors now locked tightly
With the sighs of my despair.

Daybreak fails my eyes
Left to a quest alone 
Shuddering in cold gardens
Poppy and belladonna
Best friends we are three.

Faint and distant whispers 
Of cries to never be uttered
Only laughter doth penetrate
Resting upon deaf ears
Mine heart to be left, unfound.

Thank you so much for your comment! It only takes one kind word to keep my pencil sharp. I will endeavor to touch just one person, if only one person reads one poem, that's enough to keep me trying! I deeply appreciate you taking the time to read my work! Thanks from bottom of my heart! Andreatravis
