Never Again
Never again will I open.
Walls will go up round a heart that is broken
Two friendships I thought, now just tokens
Memories soured over words spoken
Never again will I open.
Never again will I open.
Thought we were close,
Strong enough friends to defy what was coming.
Undermined from within, three became two.
Out in the cold, with a sadness slowly fading,
Leaving only regret.
And a strength newly born.
Never again will I open.
The
Lighthouse Effect
Bright,
blinding, brilliant light.
A
mere glimpse of a smile,
Then
it passes and darkness settles once again.
Bruising,
breaking, night
Icy
bleakness rips light’s warmth
I
am forgotten.
Night
unrelenting,
Without
even a star’s brightness,
To
lighten despondence.
What
I wouldn’t give for just one glance.
Pain
unending, sadness undoing
Destroying
thought, crushing creativity
Until
your light swings round
And
I am remembered once again,
Basking
in the white heat of your focus,
For
one blinding instant.
Then
the darkness descends.
And
I am forgotten.
