Love, Hope and Dreams: A Poetry Collection

Silence

The cries of night
Slowly die
As the light
Escapes the eye

Fading,
The voice complains
Helpless,
The soul remains

Now Forgotten by all
Unbegotten since small

A gift of life
Innocence anew
Becomes a rife
Frowned on by few

Moonless darkness,
The babe's refuge
Hides it's distress
As fears deluge

No home to go
No hope to know
No life to show
For the 'morrow

What to do?
What to be?
None to love.
None to see.

Future unknown
A story untold
Dwindles away
In the arms of the cold.

Shadows watch,
People sleep
As this one, lost,
Makes one last cheep

It's ocean eyes
Shut since birth
It's ancient soul
Of untold worth

Welcomed to one
Abandoned to die
Loved by none
It says goodbye

It's body, lifeless
A quondam tale
One now childless
She hides and wails
