I do...

To April

Dear April,

While my frozen heart melted from the pale winter cold,
Your storm dilapidated my mind.
Basking in your tanning rays,
I burnt my desires for a green spring.
You brought inaugural of hopes and dreams of love.
Expecting cure for the frostbite of December,
I worshipped you.
You ruled the temple of my trust.
But then you swayed them in your storm at last.

Dear April,
I thought you were my beginning to sprinting spring
And my end to the freezing wall.
My new leaf on the barren tree,
Lonely since the last fall.
I wanted time to stop here,
With no more seasons this year.

April, I wanted it to be April every day,
April I'll live you till it's May,

Silenced

There's deep mourning inside silenced by the cacophony of the outside world tonight,
The ears that heard are dead deaf.
The one that the eyes seek is one with the soil.
The arms that comforted, the hands to hold onto,
Gone.
Trapped in a frame, smiling...
The smile that can never rejuvenate.
The one who dreaded loneliness,
Left alone leaving behind someone lonely.
Loneliness deep down the soil
Is it more than the loneliness deep down the soul?
Is it felt more?
