This poem is for anyone who has ever felt heart-broken and hopeless. May Hope remain in your heart, always. ♥
*~*Tattered Toy*~*
She gazed out into
The horizon of her domain;
The haunting notes of longing, within her,
Echoed their bittersweet refrain.
She gazed out into
The horizon of her domain;
The haunting notes of longing, within her,
Echoed their bittersweet refrain.
Swirling thoughts
Of broken dreams;
Her hopes and wishes
Seeping out of frayed seams.
Her hopes and wishes
Seeping out of frayed seams.
She struggled to continue
To hold hope in her heart;
She felt like she was
Completely falling apart.
She felt like she was
Completely falling apart.
But she refused to repose in defeat
Like an abandoned tattered toy;
She gathered up her hopes and faith,
Stitched them up within,
And, through that, regained some joy.
She gathered up her hopes and faith,
Stitched them up within,
And, through that, regained some joy.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Nissie, sweetie! Hahahah! You are THE BEST cheerleader! Mwah! *HUGS*
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I love how you pair the poem with a picture ;).
ReplyDeleteWell, thank you, sweet Jayne! You make it easy to cheer! Mwah! and *HUGS* back to you!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cassio! The pictures are from two separate photoshoots that my hubby and I did with the same model. I wrote the poem many months after those shoots - one was called "The Bride Doll" and the other "Forest Frolic". It wasn't until after I wrote the poem that I realised those photos would go great with the poem! :-)
ReplyDeleteWonderful, Jayne!!!
