Poetry by Katie Part II

Night Sky


Aching, wishing, hoping,
But all to no avail.
At night, as the moon creeps from the horizon,
And the stars begin to peek,
I am alone. You are not there
As you said you would be.
Waiting, lying, crying,
But all is for nothing.
Like the star which peeks
From amidst the ocean of darkness,
I peek from amidst mine,
Only to find that still,
I am alone.
Wondering, meandering, wiping
These endless tears,
The bruises of my heart will never disappear,
For they are forever,
Taking your place.
Never again will my heart beat so loudly,
Never again will my tears remain dry,
Never again will my smile beam so brightly,
And never again will I love.
Love to me, does not exist,
You first stole my heart,
And now my hope.
My will, my passion, my desire
To be loved is no more.
As the endless black sea above
Swallows the sun,
It too swallows this heart,
But the sun will return
In all of its glory.
This heart will not.
