Windswept Lives

TORNAD-

O, wind of woe

how could one ever know

with what strength you would come to blow

then go?

Threats To Inherent Attributes

My heart is big

but not big enough

to hide the hurt behind

when you forget me

or speak words unkind

My heart is strong

but not strong enough

to lift the pain away

when you ignore me

or hold me at bay

My heart is full of love

but not full enough

sadness still finds a space

when I rest my eyes

on your empty face

Blown Apart

He’s off in the distance

but she’s so nearsighted

He’s becoming a speck

like her wind-blown kite did

Time soars, while she’s just lost

in love unrequited

As the air remains still

Hope is subdivided
