Incomplete Poem by Daniel Wittfoth

Verse 1

In this solitude
reflective tear stained memories
As the flame of life flickers out
sorrow fills the room

Verse 2

She sits starring blankly
captured by time unending
Like it never really happened
like tomorrow hasn't come and gone
If you listen very close
you can hear her heart fracture

Verse 3

Those last words spoken
a soft sigh
Now broken between the borders
of what truly can survive
She knows it will surely come
in the loneliness of night
It will begin
the measurement of loss

Chorus

Like an unfinished poem
that last verse unwritten
Moments of life and love-left unknown
of a melody beginning to fade
And tears falling
a sadness so overwhelming
incomplete

Verse 4

Thinking-how every dream-left undreamt
words not spoken
when they should have been sung
In the back of her mind
is he really gone

Verse 5

How can she continue
that last kiss-how it lingers here
To go without his touch
these emotions so unbarable
how unwanted it all feels

Chorus

Like an unfinished poem
that last verse unwritten
Moments of life and love-left unknown
of a melody beginning to fade
And tears falling
a sadness so overwhelming
incomplete
