Veils Of Mist Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Empty, desolated, a saddened darkness covering this heart
in veils of mist as it flows through the atmosphere, not
being held captive by anything here on earth.

Recapturing memories through measures of music, playing
sorrowful rhetoric throughout the years, wanting only to
live again in the love we two once had when together.

Calling out to you in my dreams, tears flowing from with-
in, nothing to keep them from stinging my heart over and
over.

Driving feelings and emotions from inside this being alone,
sparkling like diamonds, soft, pliable, yet cutting this
heart like shards of glass from within, finding nothing to
hold on to ever again here on earth.
