Left Behind
You've moved on;
Devouring thunderheads in a summer sky
They will only last a moment
Before birdsong begins once again.
But why does it still hurt;
Broken blade buried deep within.
Though I have not heard your sweet voice in ages?
I’m left in the dust
Of your vapor trails
With only pictures to tell unspoken stories.
Wishes spoken to the blades of grass
Would not matter much.
Still your eyes they speak to me
Beyond the grasp of time
Lingering pain of nostalgia
Still holding fast my soul.
I must let go of these invisible chains
They only keep me down.
It seems long ago you broke them anyway
And I’m still holding the fragments
Of your promises. 9/10/09
