You must know my heart is breaking


You must know my heart is breaking
Where are you?
I have no heart, no mind, no soul
Without you
I cannot see
am blind
You must know my heart is breaking
Why have you abandoned me?
There is no music
No light at dawn
The night is without stars
only darkness
You must know my heart is breaking
Why do you stay silent?
There is no longer color in my world
No texture, scent, warmth
I am so cold
Freezing
You must know my heart is breaking

Rose

I cut this rose
In our garden
The first of this spring
Still wet with dew
The color is
Such a deep
Deep red
The petals
So silky smooth
I want to eat it
But first
I'll take its picture

All Hearts Break


Don’t cry baby
Baby don’t cry
All hearts break
All dreams die
Never
Happened yesterday
Never
Once again
Dancing
On a street of glass
Yesterday was just pretend
All hearts break
All dreams end
Yesterday
Never happened
Yesterday was just pretend
You’ll know when you wake
That all dreams end
And all hearts break
Baby
Baby
Baby
Wake and say goodbye
All hearts break
All dreams die

Longing


And then I wandered on the shore
and felt upon my face
the wind whipped waves
mingling with my tears
And I called to her
and listened for her reply
in the ocean’s moan
and the whisper of the surf
And I ran and
danced among the waves
as we did on those bright summer days
of boundless joy
And longing for her now
among the sweep and flow
of this endless sand
I seek the sound
Of her laughter
and follow it to my heart
