MOVE ME POETRY — A POETRY COMMUNITY LIKE NO OTHER

Broken

…like blossoms

She stands all alone
in this place that was only theirs

clad in ghostly silk
she seems broken, like blossoms

or a fragile flame
almost burning out its time

she looks to heaven
trembling like smoke on the wind

down float the petals
beneath this bridge of sorrow
she weeps until tears are spent
