Soft velvety violet skies Float by jaded emerald eyes Nature, russet in hue Now shivered in anticipation, long overdue Cold comfort was offered from the sun As a cool zephyr had already begun Clouds now bulging and overladen Wept in silence A soft pitter patter Became a torrential downpour Jaded emerald eyes Turned red with tears Fair-skinned, and faint hearted Wept, with avalaching sorrow Her thoughts, lingered like shadows Silhouetted by the setting sun As spiders weave webs of intrigue That now glisten, in the moistening air Whilst hope was lost In the twinkling echoes of a dying star A deafening white noise Breaks the empty silence The mute muse Tortured and alone Could only dance in solitude Of pirouetting pity An aching heart And shattered dreams A voice now choked in silent reminiscence As jaded emerald eyes still wept A poetic voice Now lay in silence She would write no more........
