Hidden From Reality
Within the shadow of a broken heart,
love lingers, hidden from reality.
For from this depressive ebony realm,
nothing, not even its light, can escape.
But love cannot take root or ever bloom
within the shadow of a broken heart.
And the dreams cut adrift all disappear,
for love's blind, beyond the moment of now.
Oceans of tears rise like a sobbing tide,
rushing to drown happiness forever.
Within the shadow of a broken heart,
a minefield of emotions lay in wait.
Wounds bandaged with abandonment feelings,
fester in the intolerable dark.
Yet, hope glints like a fragmented mirror,
within the shadow of a broken heart.
