A Heart of Sorrow


A heart of sorrow
Which cannot be repaired
Lost in life’s silent ache
Burns holes in my memory.

Faded recollections
Warm waves come in a flood
A future burnt in ruins
Caressing a sweet tomorrow.

Long time holding on
Velvet ribbons cradle my soul
A silver cross hides despair
Silently healing a breaking heart.

Truth that grasps sadness
Surely calms a troubled brow
Fluent words softly spoken
Quietly brings help and comfort.

Peace poured out in a flood
Love through eternal splendor
Joy sublime in endless giving
A deluge of drowning grace.
