Friendship Bells Poem by Bella Ravenstar

Summer days
We walked on the sand
Closely knit together
My trust, my confidant
We shared glad years forever
Then upon the birth of fall
No laughs, no words
You gave me a silent word
Staring coldly
A wink of unfamiliarity
Trusts broke
Secrets betrayed
A strong bond broken
You chose me no more
Tears strum
A melancholic chord
You left me alone forever more
The ghostly bells rang
Chiming a dreary accord
sprinting hastely
Shrouding my shadowy cloak and gown
Slipping the cloudy shroud to my face
Halting fiercely
Upon the fresh trodden dirt
The bishop stood solemnly
Glancing a blank stare
Chasing my breath
He bagan to pray
The sun shone
I strained upon the heavy stone
Not in tune of the hymns
Drifting my gaze towards a silent sea
Coffin snug in grave
Too dumbfounded for oaths
Shocking speechless eyes
Stolen breath
The mourning sky raged
Bells flying yonder
Stood in solitude
Shed a few streams
All was vain
Every word
every gift
All my bearings for you
Wasted by greed
Drifting far yonder
Seeing, remembering all the graves
Some scars some wounds
Too many comings
Constant goings
Cemetrary sermons drawing me in
bells did not cease here
Dark and dreary
Silent eerie
Stalking statues still
Graves numbered as stars in the night
Too dead beyond fright
You still roam earth's face
Yet you're here in that grave
I wait for the ressurection
That a dead hope
Nothing to cope
When deep shining wishes fell
Bells rung
The bishop spoke
A sea of tombs
Without end
Ghosts haunting
some raised
Weary of the gloom
When friendships died
Bells cried
Coffins filled with bitter breathless memories
That never did fly
Too much to bear
I sailed toward the horizon
Leaving graves yonder
To a delight
Beyond the night
New hopes
Fresh dreams
A blank canvas to paint
Taking flight
Better companions
Starry wishes
Filled my view
a refreshing anew
