HEAD IN HANDS

nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

Twilight kissed
An aching heart
As loneliness
World torn apart
Wrapped cold arms
About days frame
Not to comfort
Just refrain.

From speaking words
No one would hear
A mixture of
Regret and fear
At a future
Head in hands
Below the feet
Shifting sands.

Eyes that stare
Seem to look beyond
Each movement terse
A moving sound
That rattles thought
Like a rusting gate
Fighting to
Stay in place.
