Francois Bergh

where lost words come to rest in pieces…

Unmade

A lifetime remembered
Rolls from a reddened cheek -
A world, together, lost;
Contained in tears so slick…

A promise unspoken
Spills from a whispered dream -
The truth we dared not speak
Retains a faded gleam…

A future unwritten
Strolls from a crumpled sheet -
The words, forsaken, bare;
Constrained beneath our feet…

A shoreline untrampled
Spans from a distant shore -
The prints we never made
Remains forevermore…

Beautiful writing – I wish I could convey powerful emotion with such brevity as you have done with this one. Well done.
