NIGHT WIND
Distressful notes of pain
Strained with tears of plight
Echo through the silent night
Filling the empty spaces in my heart.
Like a tribute song at a funeral
The notes constantly rise and fall.
Like spaces in a poem and dots in prose
The wind stammers hope to my heart.
Amidst my pain from the sudden loss
I still sense the night wind urging a pause
To my worries and troubled beating
Of a heart shattered beyond repair.
The night wind whispers hope
To a heart drowning.
Leaves and wings play rhapsodies
Of the end and start of past stories.
