A trip down memory lane

I'm going to blog a series of old poems from my past over the next month or so. I am not sure when some of these poems were written but I will do my best to put an approximate time on them.

All the poetry I post is copyrighted, just in case you are tempted to swipe it ;-)


And now, the first poem of my series:

Shattered
By Starsha (1999ish)

Emptiness overwhelms me
Where is the happiness I wish to see?
Everything within feels void and hollow
Yet so full of fear, I can't even swallow
My love like shattered glass just tossed aside
Stolen by the evening tide
Broken and scattered in all directions
I didn't even want perfection
I didn't want to be the best
Just a place where my heart could rest
Lend me wings so that I might fly
And water the earth with the tears I cry
Alone with the shadows of a forgetful night
Disturbed and running without sight
They never cared, now it's too late
No one can predict my fate
My lonely spirit is no more
The salty waves crash against the shore
