Shattered ....

Not far,

Not far beyond that stretched smile,

The hearts melody,

Zeal of freshness,

Crept the shadows of sorrow, of remorse,

An illusion of Joy,

Alas! a misleading act.

What so grave ,

To pain the self heart?

Shall a selfless care,

A wish to nurture ,

A long haul of time,

Swept in moments,

Ruin the joyful heart?

The eyes have seen no hour,

No shattering of belief,

So harsh , to shed no tears,

The pain, Sunken deep,to the bed.

for the drained eyes close in disbelief.

A moments pause ,

and , then , the awakening ,

Into the greatest Fear.

The softness of care,

Innocence of Love,

Once again . A mockery of the Fool...
