The Shadow Cast by the Heart

Shards of memories…

Shattered

The happy free moments…

Scattered

Across

The shadow cast by the heart

My thoughts riddled with

Ghosts of the past

I wish I could see my future cast

In a sunset’s light

Or stars of the night.

…I try to remember

I will myself to dream

Of times when

What is nothing now was everything to me

I sometimes wish that time would stop

The future melts with every tock

The sun sets

Yes

But the moon also rises

I love them both

The light and the dark

And the space in between

That no one has seen

The clouds rain down sand

The hourglass won’t break

Hurry and run

Before time is done

Shards of memories…
Shattered

The happy free moment…

Scattered

Across

The shadow cast by the heart
