Gate

Posted on by

She told you she would not cry when you

Walked away.

She lied.

She shut the gate behind herself in the

Garden

So you could not see

Her trembling steps;

Her trembling lips.

Her singing voice hid her sorrow.

You never learned her anyway.

Perhaps she will not open to trust

This lifetime.

Perhaps it is so,

But you will not know for your soul has

Agreed to move on.

Shut The Door

Posted on by

You got up and shut the door so

No one else could hear her crying.

(Ashamed)

You put your hand over  her mouth.

And turned out the lights

So you did not have to see

What you did to

Her.

(Ashamed)

And you act like nothing ever happened,

Like nothing ever

Changed.

No one else is the wiser

As they applaud you

And pat you on the back

While night terrors

Wrack her in awake time.

(Ashamed)
