empty street

A bottle of tears

A heart with no beat

A soul with no fire

A dark empty street

No love lives here

Darkness holds sway

No starshine at night

No sun in the day

Just the ticking of the clock

As my life slips away

No hand to hold

No sigh in the night

No loving words

To make everything right

Just the rain on the window

And the wind at the door

My reason for living

Don't live here no more

georgous poem..........

but the poet in me thinks the last line would sound so much better if you wrote doesn't live here anymore...... just flows nicer.......... loved the thought otherwise. Sincerely, Melissa Lundeen

Dayum. This really hit me

Dayum. This really hit me hard. I didn't know what I needed to learn today and I think this is it. Thank you, keep writing and may your words flow freely.

 

Love,

If your mirror doesn't find you one of the most beautiful people it has ever seen, punch it and find a better mirror.
