Barren Heart

Barren Heart

    Silence.... 

....not a sound to be heard,

not a beast in sight....not even a bird.

so quiet it is as I look up the sky,

I'm filled with memories so bitter,

.... my feelings die.

As I look around me alone with my mind

it's an emptiness I see

and in my heart I find.

   This is my life, so barren and quiet,

I slipped and fell hard, 

no help in sight!

Where did they all go , 

disappeared without a trace....

the one's I loved and cared, 

all now without a face.

It's like a glass cage I'm in 
all hollow does it seem
I play my part as a puppet does,
then retreat back into my dream.
Silence....!
no thoughts to be heard,
no memories play ,
all feelings seared.
