Forgotten Smiles


    The heart it bleeds
    And dances alone.
    In some long lost
    And forgotten home.

    It kindles not,
    It dwindles, it dims.
    In silent protest
    It calls out to him.

    A soft echo reverberates,
    Bounces to and fro.
    A piece of the heart dies
    Forever let go.

    It crumbles, it falls
    Lies waste to the ground
    And in their empty words
    Desolation abounds.

    A sorrow haunts
    The shadow of her eyes.
    Her lips no longer curve
    With long forgotten Smiles.
