Whitedoves Nest Poems

The winter wind blows against my face
...

As she runs along the beach
Her thoughts hurt; out of reach
...

A sadness dims, it was a while ago
The adult thinks back on the child she knows
A time of horror and of pain
The memory keeps a grip; like a chain
...

Through the crowded aisles
I push the shopping cart
I wonder why I feel this way;
At the local mart
...

It was you that wiped away my tears
It was you that protected; allayed my fears
It was you that always understood
It was you that I turned to; as I should
...

My mind wanders back
Through the years and the tears
Taking the journey that
Was to be forgotten
...

From far away I here you call
It is like a whisper; saying you will not fall
Like a butterfly softly swaying
As a breeze flows through my heart
...

How does one reconcile
Something that is so vile
...

If only I could tell you; what you mean to me
then I would not explain; for you could truly see
My life was in turmoil, full of pain and fear
then you came flying in; just to be so near
...

She hides alone beneath the bed
Her tears fall; nothing said
She stares up; the springs all rusty
The room dry; dark and musty
...
