Fallen Petals

When rose petals float upon forbidden bursts of blue
the winds whispered colors of hope~

Only to be scorched later by realities waves
crashing them against the shore

Wilted into deception upon the sand
drained of all their beauty,
a salty mist cascades in empathy around me,
seizing my thoughts

I am waltzing through echoes of a merciless world
darkened by shadows,
as this ruse of impressions leaves behind deep footprints
upon my hearts journeys

Lurking like crystal memories
an image,
my reflection~
reveals itself in the dried petals left scattered

Suddenly, I am left wandering~
Alone, My life;
frozen between syllables of thoughts,
overwhelmed with sorrow,
my soul crumbles
in silken wishes of tears,
as stars softly fade away my dreams

with tainted remnants of yesterday,
left upon the sand
