Words

Words muttered,

Like a grumpy old man wanting silence

Be quiet!

Listen, ideas rustle inside a cocoon

 A magician configuring,

A caterpillar transform into a butterfly

Emotions clothe words,

Lips speak.

Shattered Glass

Love was a fragile embrace, lips kissed goodbye

We were butterflies flapping

Into twilight consumed by the darkness eyes were blind

Stolen from our hearts

Lies were thieves’, those innocent little white lies

We never spoke our pain

Grew ‘till belly was full

 Disappointments were enough, happiness was a distant memory

Playing like a broken record

Shriek of a shattering glass

Screaming arguments of a tired heart

With regrets how carelessly it gave all its treasure

 Poignant sentiments to a heartless void

Whispering eerie sounds of a dead love melting to dust

Lovers crying with deep sigh

Everytime they reminisce

Feelings once shared,

 It was there on table, a vase sparkling with diamonds

We drank celebrating our love

Everyday we were together

Moments we shared, panic on the afternoon

A dinner in the evening

 We dance the night

Were only given until midnight

Our magic spell disappeared, run away like Cinderella

The glass shoe slipped off

Fell and shattered on the ground,

Our bitter hearts
