Image for the poem the girl who never was

the girl who never was



sun rises. sun sets
moon waxes & wanes
sadness follows sadness
but no one complains

days of lyrical fog
nights of surreal mist
a gentle hand was never held
sweetest lips were never kissed

pieces of tomorrow
that lovers take
there never was
a heart to break

the flowering fields
the meadows fair
don’t look for her
she isn’t there

a harvest of stars
a sheaving of years
stillborn shadows
of silence & tears

not a waltz to dance
nor a song to sing
a canvas of no colors
no girl.
  no poem.
     nothing
