Whispers of a Shattered Heart

 Whispers of a Shattered Heart



In shadows deep where sorrows dwell,
They say time heals, yet pains compel,
Each tick a wound that cuts anew,
With every breath, I bitter rue.

I long to learn the warmth of love,
But fields of grief my heart's made of;
The hands that clasped in joyous night,
Now linger lost in endless flight.
Oh, darkness wraps this fragile frame,
A bluesy tune without a name,

Can you escape what fate has marked?
Will love return when hope has parked?
For tears like rivers ebb and flow,
And whispers haunt the soul below;
Can hearts as fragile as the glass,

Withstand the weight of dreams that pass?
So here I stand with bruised resolve,
Against the tide where shadows evolve;
Tell me now, oh echoing night,
Can you die from a heart’s lost fight?

10 Reasons why I hate dating

10 Reasons Why I Hate Dating In the modern masquerade of love and romance, Where hearts and swipes dance in a digital silence, I find myself adrift in a sea of strange glances, Where dating is a dance with no clear sense of balance. 1. The high of connection, so fleeting and thin, Crashes down with the spotlight on a single sin. A flaw, so minuscule, yet it shatters the mirage, Leaving me in doubt, in the shadow of the barrage. 2. Pockets weigh heavier than the weight of our chat, Dinners and movies, oh the costly rat-a-tat. The price of companionship, a tax so unkind, When all I seek is a soul to unwind. 3. Jealous whispers echo through the night air, While I stand, a statue, not allowed a care. For in this game of hearts, it seems so one-sided, My own feelings, unwelcome, and often derided. 4. The quest for a partner, a quest so untrue, When all I wish is for a bond that's not new, To simply be me, without the façade's reign, But instead, I'm nudged to play the part of th...

Whispers of the willow's plight

 Whispers of the willow's plight Where whispers of the willow's plight Meet the soft caress of a gentle breeze, Lives a tale of love's most curious keys. A girl, whose eyes reflect the stars, Finds joy not in the mirth or the bars, But in a dance of passion's might, Where the line of pleasure meets the fight. The pain, a mere instrument, a tool, For her soul to break the cruelest rule, Not the pain itself that makes her swoon, But the power she takes back so soon. With every lash, a silent cry, His control, she lets him tie, But what truly makes her pulse race, Is the trust she's found in his embrace. He wields the whip, so strong and firm, Yet in her heart, it's her soul's turn, To conquer fears, to make them flee, In his power, she finds her liberty. Her body, a canvas of his art, Where love and pain together start, A symphony of desire's tune, Her life's goal is to be immune. To the pain that once had her cowed, Now it's a language she's a...

No second chance poem.

 No second chance poem.  He'd whisper sweet nothings, a silver tongue, Yet underneath, a heart so wrong, He'd lie and cheat, and never belong, To the world of the decent and the young. One strikes you are out, my dear, Your key to my heart, no longer here, In the game of love, you did steer Wayward paths of deceit and fear. One strikes you are out, no second cheer, Our chapter ends, let the curtains clear. With eyes so blue, a gaze so kind, He promised love, a heart to mend, But the devil's in the details, you'll find, When the darkness does ascend. He danced in the moonlit night, A masquerade of pure delight, Yet his soul was cloaked in spite, And the truth was a treasure, not meant. I gave him trust, a precious stone, But he cast it aside, thrown, For the thrill of deceit alone, Leaving my heart to atone. He knew not of the pain he'd bring, As he sang his siren's song, In the dance hall of the scorned and the wrung, Where the innocent do belong. But I am not o...
