Soliloquy

Tortured rivers, can you see
Tormented souls trying to be
All they ever hoped to see
Is now awash the eastern sea

When did we become two?
A feeling terribly ripped into
Cries foul with a new-found glee
“A broken heart is all I’ll ever be”

A dream fulfills my nightmares
Who’s now hidden in its layers
Talks of courage and of fear
Shedding a tiresome, lonely tear

What’ll I say when I see you there?
If it’s not love, then what do we share?
Treacherous times to go for the kill
My heart has maybe found the will.
