Poems #1-10

A collection of single stanza poems, all of which are untitled, identified only by number.

#1
Love shattered the stillness of the night
Silvery light of the moon fracturing in pieces
Stars twinkling high above
Like the shards of broken hearts

#2
Summer shadows, fading seasons
Falling leaves, dying wind
Sparkling ice, encroaching darkness
Swaying gently, a single red rose

#3
Amongst the shadows of death the oceans echo,
The waves scream into the silence
Droplets of tears spray up with every fall,
And the sounds of mourning ring

#4
In the heart of a lost soul agony echoes
Within the throes of life and death
Numbered heartbeats shall be heard
As the world draws its last breath

#5
In the stillness of death a single whisper,
A near silent plea for freedom
Sounds in the non-existent space of existence
And shatters all hope of salvation

#6
Departed though you may be
But not yet forgotten
For your spirit lives within me
Forever in my heart

#7
Blood dripping from the lustful sword
Sharpened steel slicing through the air
Shrill whistle of the wind echoing in space
Death's call enveloping the world

#8
In the dying of tears the spirits sing,
And as the eyes of the world are opened
To all the suffering and all the hate
Songs of love and beauty caress our souls

#9
The despair that clouds the earth
Turns the hearts of many black
And yet some still look upon it with mirth
While others see it as a treacherous track
To take in life for it swallows your soul
Beyond a point of no return

#10
In the air of longing the spirits weep,
Emotions turns to dust in the wind
Soaring on the wings of the world
Rivers of tears cascade over the end
