Time Is Mine Enemy
The night sky splits.
A jagged tear.
The shimmers shudder in distance.
The endless sky is forever gone.
Only a distant memory.
As distant as the shimmers.
My verse now falls on empty hearts.
A hanging tear finally falls.
Like the morning dew on withered flowers.
The light comes and falls upon another different day.
But it’s ray is not cast deep enough to light my soul.
Time is mine enemy, love’s tick too brief, grief’s talk is forever.
