Whispers

By
Melva

 

Forever the gentle rivers flow aimlessly around each bend

My longing for you will never come to end

Unlike a river in time reaches its final goal

The ache consumes a deeper path within my very soul

The untamed wilderness seems so never ending and vast

I don’t believe you ever loved me in the past

Like cascading waterfalls forever releasing ribbons of their tears

My hidden tears of silence will go on for all my years

Steadily nature boasts the beauty of its flowers far and wide

I would have been so proud to have you always at my side

Eroded cliffs and canyons show their age from wind and rain

Just as my eyes show age from endless sorrow and deep pain

The mountain dew plays kissing games as it dances across the forest floor

Unfair were the games you played that hurt me to hearts core

The mystic fog meanders and caresses each forest tree

Wishing I could walk the caverns of your heart, yet knowing it can’t be

Gentle wind singing sweet songs of yesterday throughout the night

Only bittersweet memories I have in darkness to hold to tight

With time, the valleys whisper many secrets but no one hears

The forest my sole listener of my secrets, and my fears

Now I walk my final path alone there’s no one here to guide me

I now become a valley secret an insignificant fading memory

Listen…can you hear the whispers?
