Love Poem: Silent Heart

Written by: Markus Fleischmann

Silent Heart

She's at peace
A puzzle with a missing piece
A rhymeless melody 
Sung on Autumn's breeze
Waves crashing upon empty shores
White sand under sunless sky
She has forsaken chance
A Lonely Moonlight dance
She's a childlike dreamer
A Fairytale romance seeker
Inside she died yet
So much alive
Lives under light of moon
Safe in her shell
Heart crafted cocoon
She's both
Happy and sad
Cuddled in a vacant bed
Romantic themes haunt her dreams
Images of what she once had
Lives now without lie
But her soul remains unoccupied
She grew strong
Carries on like nothing's wrong
Still at times feels misplaced
Tears scream to be chased
Loneliness leaves a bitter taste
Life taught lessons learned
Keeps her from hurt
Her Prince does not exist
He faded with Moonlit mist.
