Too Late

Oh why have we settled in the unquiet darkness,
where the noise of the silence overwhelms our hearts?
And we fall apart –
the sun sets and it rises –
we make shapes of ourselves no one can see.
Oh why are we lost in these tears
if we’ve forgotten how to cry?
If absence makes the heart grow fonder
can we hold on much longer?
We are burning in a drought of faith,
unnoticing as the stars are earnestly shining,
desperately bleeding light.
Oh how ironically hopeless
is every star’s forgotten fight,
for we are just uselessly drowning
under the weight,
under the honesty of the unspoken.
Oh the noise of the silence overwhelms our hearts.
I believe we are skillfully crafted
inexplicable accidents,
and our hero – the potter –
is too late.

A Bit About The Author

Hey :)
I'm Liv. I've never had a blog before and I'm afraid that we have grown quite attached. I like to write poems, take pictures and post about my boyfriend A LOT. He's an "artist" and at some points I've posted a link to his blog which you should have a look at. Recently I've dabbled in writing fiction so take a look and let me know how it's going.
Some of the poems I write need work, I know but any comments are much appreciated.
