Rock Me

loves struggle

When the sunshine rocks a fuschia sky,

And the blackness fades away,

I'll still listen for the echo

Of the words you used to say.

Clenched tightly in my midnight dream

Is a hope for you and me,

Yet every painful breath I take 

Brings a haunting memory.

A time when things were simple

And laughter found it's way,

A time when lovers held their hands

And angels came to pray.

Silence is an enemy,

And doubt will cloud the heart,

The peace of love is stolen,

The heavens fall apart.

And in the wake of broken dreams,

I wonder once again,

If the wind will softly whisper,

If my broken heart will mend.

Please take away the eyes

That see what might have been,

And blow away the falling tears 

That never seem to end.

The rhythm was really good and so was the imagery. I could almost see the inner turmoil that this person was going through and it was sad but there was a certain strength about it. Great write.
