Dark Lullabye For You

By RoseTheBrokenHearted

Two racing hearts,
Beating soundlessly in the dark.
Ones inside my chest,
Hanging on to catch it's breath.
The other is yours,
Searching for a cure.
Hoping to find it's saving grace,
While taking hollow memories to the grave.
All to your dismay,
You found those days wouldn't stay.
Forever was a false promise,
Feigned behind calmness.
It was never meant to be a lie,
For, I would rather die.
You were my clutch,
When I needed it all too much.
Worry not, for you, I did love,
But sometimes its not enough.
Do not worry, this is no goodbye.
It's simply, just your lullabye.

    RoseTheBrokenHearted I am sorry that you have gone through sad and dark times but I love what it leads to in your writing! You are very talented and it seems to flow so naturally. Beautiful lullaby,

  • A former member wrote: Another dark poem from you my friend! I love the way you express your feelings, even they are so sad. It reminded a song from Akira Yamaoka called "Room Of Angel" . If you haven't heard it, i suggest you do! Have a nice day and I'll see you around!
