*******************************
In sadness I fade
Left a hollow carapace
Of the man I was.
*******************************
In the black of night,
Sorrow rears it’s ugly head,
Leaving me tortured.
*******************************
Alone with my thoughts,
Silence as my only friend,
Plotting my demise.
*******************************
With head in my hands,
I pondered ending it all,
But what is the point.
By D. R. DiFrancesco
The prick of a rose,
Drops of falling crimson flow,
Symbolizing love.
**********************************
In dreams I see you,
Restlessly watching you sleep,
Praying you’re still mine.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Arms wrapped around me,
Tranquil warmth of your touch,
Invigorates me.
By D. R. DiFrancesco
Your tender touches,
Soft upon my weathered cheek,
Comforting my soul.
########################
Looking glassy eyed,
Trust broken by love’s demise,
Drowning in self-pity.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Tears of sadness fall,
Drenching my heartbroken soul,
In the dark abyss.
By D. R. DiFrancesco
Grasping at my soul
Frost of love gone cold haunts me
Every waking hour
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Love like summer’s heat
Burns deeply with passing time
Capturing the heart
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Screaming out in pain
Wallowing in tears of lose
Praying you return
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Your gentle fragrance
It’s bouquet embraces me
Softened with a kiss
By D. R. DiFrancesco
Reddened cheeks tear stained
Broken heart bleeding crimson
Poisoned by lost loves
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
Soft and tender kiss
Blushing my body tingles
Leaving me breathless
/////////////////////////////////////////////////
Take my calloused hand
Gently enveloped by love
Softening my soul
The heat of summer
Bakes the earth to cinders
Life thrives in this hell
———————————————-
Water carves the sphere
Bringing character from God
To the earth it’s canvas
———————————————-
Shattered window breaks
Leaving shards of glass below
Rocks thrown by children
