Aftermath

The first touch of night
Marks the eastern horizon
I've spent the whole day
Trying not to remember
The skill of your deception

nothing left
just a shell
a vacant lot
an emptiness
a surreal
haunting
veil of
silence
and
death

Aftermath

The storm subsided among lost cries
Blurred picturesque of ruined brides
I see as I await my muse
In the solemn solitary sunrise.

Aftermath

The breeze stenciled in gray as night dims low
Engraving war's moments, blood of sorrow.

Aftermath of a Poem

I read the words, again and again and again...
For reading is not always able enough in,
Capturing the whole essence..
Of the silence between those words!

Outstanding Melting Warmth

Determinately mean, sometimes severely cold can 
December be.
But never does the love the sun has for us weaken.
In the aftermath of a snowstorm, there it is.

the eyes
telling the tale
of an old soul
in turmoil
seeking serenity
simplicity
the irony
her youth
vanishing
in the aftermath

Wind howls
And storms lay siege
Beyond my reach

Wednesday will surely come
Preparations dissolve fear
Rooted in the aftermath

Premium Member Calm Cool Aftermath

17
In the calm
Cool aftermath
Of all the drugs I did
After so long
Being on that skid
To be free 
Confounds me
Flabbergasted I 
Smoke a cigarette
And cry

A Windless Sea

Opinion,
  shapes the 
  aftermath
  of what once was free

A commentary of 
  detainment,
  adrift
   —on a windless sea

(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2016)

New Ways

The illuminated path,
The perceived aftermath,  
The wall against my back,
Reflects light on a track, 
Where light goes,
Dismayed are the foes.

Premium Member Unbelieving Eyes

unbelieving eyes
glued to surreal images
death and destruction 
and an ashen aftermath
terrorism had hit home

Turning the Pages

time has come
to follow the way
life threw me

to settle down 
in the aftermath 
of fifty years passing

many goals, dreams
unfulfilled by hardships
a lowly soul, beneath them all
sad

Trump and Horrible Aftermath

Trump and Horrible Aftermath

What I wonder about  will be wreath,
Of President becoming a psychopath
No desire,
To inspire,
Am afraid of his horrible aftermath.

Premium Member Silent Fall

Listen to poem:
autumn rains leaves on path
shrouds lanes in aftermath

game is played on rope swings
love is swayed, fallout brings

swing falls silent, regrets
leaf palls its shed, forgets
