Love Poem: Alone

Written by: Tina Gamble

Alone

A shelter of a different kind

An echoed verse no one will find

A promise carved in a heart of stone

The world revolves

Untouched, alone

 

Words of love on rancid breath

The ambience a silent death

But beneath the shelter of the sky

Is where you’ll find the will to cry

 

Forgotten dreams, long put to bed

The silent screams, of hearts that bled

But in the quiet of the night

When we think of all unsaid

We grasp the dying of the light

And give up the ghost instead

 

For in truth we know not what we do

But to who we are we must stay true

And if by chance we do atone

The world revolves untouched, alone
