Broken Dreams



Mellow droplets bleed the sky
 Feeling the heart twiddle, without a goodbye

 Caress thy silken brown
 Seeping sorrow, I may drown

 Fragrance ever so sweet
 A trapped bird, never to cheat

 Remorse pours withheld empathy
 Watching frantic droplets emanate endlessly

 Clung thoughts to keep
 Bewildered, feeling cheap

 Face corrupted in blotches
 Running free of shattered watches

 Shinning sun shimmering on thy burdened cross
 Entrusting your heart on a pale covered choss

 Believing spurious eyes
 Hold on, before it dies

 Remember the kiss
 Remember the bliss
