Jade Heathfield Poems

The sun still shone,
The birds still sang,
The children laughed,
The world went on.
...

Cuts like a knife.
Deep into my soul.
I shut my eyes,
Hoping the words escape my head.
...

I watch you as you laugh,
I love that smile.
Your lovely eyes dance,
With a sparkle of light...
...

I sometimes wonder,
When I look up to the stars...

My brother...
...

My fingers lightly creep,
And wrap around your waist,
I know that you're asleep,
I must not make much haste...
...

Slide my hand,
Across the bed,
You are not there,
Alone instead.
...

He is waiting for her,
He shivers into himself
The cold spring morning numbing him.
But she doesn't come.
...
