There’s a Truth

There’s a truth
that speaks deeper than words.
It pierces your heart
and leaves it to bleed.

There’s a love
that’s more than touches and kisses.
It tears through your soul.
It rips it to pieces.

There are looks you can never forget,
tattoos in a memory
that falters and fades.

Each thought you conceive
is a world of its own.
Though there it stands still,
forgotten,
alone.

There’s a truth
that can be seen.
Don’t cover your eyes.
Don’t walk away.

There’s a love
that begs you to stay.
It tugs on your sweater,
it smiles through the pain.

There are looks
that have nothing to gain.
Don’t let them go unseen
Don’t let them be in vain.

Voiceless reflections
are a chamber of silence
frozen echoes
unspoken,
unheard.

 

Juliet’s Bliss

I’ve been sitting here for ages,
underneath the cypress tree,
flipping through these faded pages,
taking in the summer breeze.
Looking back into my past,
everything went way too fast
Didn’t have the time to think
now I close my eyes
let it sink…
No sun to rise!
No night!
No wrong or right!
I can let my hair fall down,
as I watch my little town
cry onto my wooden bed.
All their voices in my mind,
as they give me roses red,
are the ones I leave behind.
For Romeo, my dear
if there’s one thing that is clear,
in this afterlife without plans,
here beside me,
holding hands,
I have thee…
So there’s nothing I do fear
As long as you, my love, are near.

 

My Ballroom

I hear an angel’s voice…
it guides me to the ballroom…
I lean just outside the entrance
it’s guiding me away from my blindness.
As I begin to see I can notice each detail,
smell the chill in the starry sky,
feel the sweet breeze of the wind…
It gently pushes against my skin.
I lift my head to gaze at the chandelier above,
a thousand candles burn bright.
I close my eyes…
He wraps his arms around me and we begin to dance.
Every step is perfect,
synchronized.

My eyes remain closed,
there is no need to open them,
not yet…
The beat gets slower…
A tear escapes,
and I slowly let go of his hold…
The last note echoes in the vastness of this room…
Another tear rolls down my cheek…
One last glance at the chandelier…
One last caress from gentle Zephyr…
I open my eyes.
Everything’s gone
everything except my bedroom…
My ballroom
