Best Forsaken Poems

Today’s wind shifts too fast like a muddle
of invisible lint…perhaps dust,as the air 
resists this heart's unanswered questions
howling about this litany of a crushed promise: 
Wired thoughts rip my lily bouquet now strewn
the ground of lament; an aborted vow
silencing chapel aisles on this day, this...

Don’t leave me here alone with my thoughts
entangled,
ensnared
wedged,
caught

The roaring whispers
the screeching silent shouts

Please stay a while longer
My soul is crying out

Thoughts
they're racing
they're playing
tumbling through my mind

Silence
absconded
misplaced
I cannot find

Peace
be still
I will seek thee
Do not leave

For
jealousy
suspicion
paranoia
disbelief

My thoughts
they lie
they steal
they cheat

corruption
deception
fraud 
dishonesty

Reasoning
 plays coy

Sanity
 has 
 forsaken me?...

I’m lost in a field of forsaken flowers, 
counting crestfallen stars…
and as the lavender moon ascends
to rinse away cold kohl tears~
I call your name in soft cadence, 
pondering, will you ever hear me?...

When I try to look back, it hurts to start
A mother I was now in continual broken heart

In the innocence of that Sunday quietly shopping away
When my thoughts to humanity go in angered astray

One minute he held my hand, the next he was gone
In suspended...

Forsaken Temptation
I saw two signposts when out walking one day
One said “Paradise” and the other “Please Stay”
Should I walk with...

Take it.
Take it and throw it away.
It will never be the same anyway.

A hole.
A hole in my chest.
Ragged, raw and hollow.

The pain.
The pain is so intense, I'm numb.
It's a struggle to get through the day.

My bed.
My bed is my refuge.
If only I could stay here...

Forgotten lie the graves of the forsaken, 
long unremembered, strangled 
by the grasses of neglect. 
Misbegotten, forever mute they fester, 
worm-mingled, mercy less, 
with no vestige of respect....

Forsaken Love

Dear lover, why hast thou forsaken me
my miserable life now cut in shreds
If only thee had instead set me free
love, no longer sharing our silkened beds

To what ending hath thou denied my love
with darkness cast into our sadden souls
Once our future sailed on so...

When I call for You
And You turn Me away
Why hath' thou forsaken thee
When I am so all alone
And blood runs cold
        Lord God
Why Hath thou
      Forsaken thee
Is thy wicked way
The path from all...

In the frozen arms of the old oak tree
A rustic birdhouse perches
Snow covered, forsaken

In the night within the silent darkness
Cried a fallen angel,
From the waves of the wind soaring from afar
There he rose from the ground below; hopelessly. 
Known to him was only pain,
As he came from beyond the borders of sadness
Still dared fear, thence uttering of patience,
He...
