Topic: Alone... | |
---|---|
So many of us fear what we do not know...
about the ones that we love what secrets they keep in the middle of the night... what trials they rise above... please, enjoy the poetry... Alone He startles awake in the twilight, He eyes watering from fear. Clutching his chest in the darkness, Fighting hard for the life he holds dear. His heart beats a rapid report, As his wife sleeps by his side. Unaware of the fear in her husband, Unaware that his soul has died. Unaware of all the love they've shared, Unaware of all the nightmares he keeps. Unaware of his shame for the future, As in his terror, she softly sleeps. He looks down on her sleeping body, Afraid of what happens from here. An old man who's lived alone, For many a married year. Their love is falling apart, But his silent words he will keep. He's been living alone for so long now, That he just lies down, and returns to sleep. With Equescent thoughts... FroznChild |

Awww but to hold those fears inside will take a good person
down they must learn to let the demons within out in order to capture them and expell them. |
