SHATTERED
i lie here
broken
in the dark
tucked beneath
my widow’s cloak
my heart in pieces
stirred and haunted
below the stars
a wounded animal
i stray
i limp and wander
lingering
in circles wide
a vagabond
without her mate
a soul idle hovering
adrift amidst the fog
hopelessly aimlessly...

What Were In Isnt LoveI’m half me
Are you half you
We’ve given up

What we’re in....isn’t love
We’ve settled...

BrokenYour words like a blade
Tear into my soul
Leave me breathless
Unable to respond
My mind heavy with fog
Fighting through these thoughts
Explain to me why you have forsaken me
I must at least deserve this...

NEVER COULD WE IMAGINE
~dedicated to Anni who is moving on
to meet up with her beloved Carl~
alone behind
grey hospital walls
she picks up the phone
and calls each grand-daughter
to say a final goodbye
she feels today’s
the day

The sky called life gleamed in serenity,
in zephyr floated a butterfly free.
Its tinged wings embossed your beauty,
as flowers bloomed in all seasons for me.
The horizon splashed hues of ecstasy,

For what happens behind your back
Can be so matter of fact
And even it you don’t...

'It's over'
Steely-eyed
tight-lipped
she mouthed the words
'It's over'
twice,
so they'd sink in all the way
no tear in her eye
nor gulp in her throat
guarding her pounding heart
as she cleaved his
