Abyss of despair
by Natalia Alvarado-Alvarez
20-Sep-2008
 

Your pain and sorrow is deeper than the ocean

Your tears could fill the Grand Canyon full  

You are within the Abyss of despair

Deeper and deeper you sink 

 

The madness continues to pursue you 

As you question the why and how, of it all

You are tormented day and night

Are you ever to be set free?

 

You are like a nomad traveling here and there

Trying to escape his memory

Trying to find peace within yourself

Alas to no avail

 

Your vision has become as clouded as the mists of Avalon

You keep trying to find your path back to reality

Searching for any light to guide you back

Yet none can be found

 

As your heart has become as delicate as crystal

You have built a fortress around your heart

Swearing that another will not break your heart again

Always guarding against the intruder

 

Perhaps in time you will ease your grip on your heart

Your smile will return as bright as the sun

Your eyes will once again shine like the stars

Your joy will be child like again

 

 

 

 

Dedication: Poem is dedicated to both Rosie's in my life.

Dear Nadia:

What a beautiful poem your heart wrote! You portrayed your sister's pain so well, yet your poem was full of hope and good vibrations for her as only a generous, loving woman can do for another. She is lucky to have such a sensitive and kind sister.

A broken heart can only be mended by love. If only she can understand and allow this, her healing could start. I am sending her good thoughts.

 Thank you for your kindness. If only it were my heart that was broken.

Sadly, it is my sibling's heart that was broken.

Natalia jan,

Reading your poem and listening to these beautiful songs, it's hard not to feel what you must be feeling...  Would it help if I told you we've all been there? Would it help if I told you time will find a way to heal the broken heart?

To love and to hurt come hand in hand for most of us...  The deeper the love, the more painful the loss will be. It's the price to pay, the alternative is numbness and I don't recommend it.

in time you will ease your grip on your heart

Your smile will return as bright as the sun

Your eyes will once again shine like the stars

Your joy will be child like again
