No Goodbyes

An empty hole deep down in chest
A heart with memory repressed
Opens for something more to see
To hear a perfect melody
Song echoes through the empty halls
It rips, it tears, it breaks through walls
A scream that trembles with the shame
Of having lost life's strongest game

It tramples rubble left uncleared
Dashes away remnants of fears
Moisture builds to drench a spark
Before it's even left its mark
It catches, defies common sense
Leaves enemy bodies deep entrenched
Walks away with nose tipped high
And doesn't bother with goodbyes -
                      Silence; now a peaceful sky.

Sunshine

Addiction
feeling of dancing
just under skin
Whispers
fingers reach, grasp
shadows fissure
Stronger
eyes flutter to open
heart again stirs
Powerful
the grip of emotion
raw, no control
Richness
growth of the soul
in memory impressed
Passion
depth with no bottom
to lose one's self in
Fallen
but quick rising
will blossom again
Sunshine
rays caress, warm
old restraint unbinds
