Winter Rain

Winter rains fall like the tears from my eyes

cold drops slap against the window glass

cruel and harsh

 slowly sliding down the surface

weeping

mirroring the lament of my broken heart.

Shattered Dreams

Shattered dreams like broken glass

the fragments cut deep, raw emotion pours out

spilling angry tears, choking sobs, grief, confusion, regret,

making this heart feel fragile and want to close up tight.

~

Profound sorrow like mourning a death

the loss of a love before it was given a chance to fully blossom

twas such a beautiful, meaningful connection, special, unique,

making this heart feel broken and become undone.

~

With the prophecy left unfulfilled

all faith and hope in dreams is gone.
