Empty Glass


Like blades we cut through the ice
and i melted into your soul
the music drifted from another time
and in that moment
the world was empty.

Now facing the reflection
of all i never wanted to be
justifying every minute
every second
that i breathe.

My soul is bleeding
behind a hollow mask
i'm dancing in a masquerade
i'm just another
empty glass.

But somewhere
deep inside all this commotion
lies an ocean of love
a forgotten heart
long untouched
longing for the caress
of pure
and gentle
emotion.

Like blades we cut through the ice
and i melted
into your soul.

"Like blades we cut through the ice
and i melted into your soul"

What an expression of passionate love!

"My soul is bleeding
behind a hollow mask
i'm dancing in a masquerade
i'm just another
empty glass."

Such expressive lines!
We keep pretences, even though we bleed inside...

This again has the quality of sadness pervaiding deep through out, like in all your poems...

Welcome back my dear friend!

Love, xxx, Zoya

Your poem mirrors my soul.

As scene that is all too frequent in our hustle bustle, must bev have to have society and where then, have the simpler things in life gone, when love drifts across a field of fresh mown hay in sweet savored aeromatic lilt? - - - - An amazing and truly inspiring work. I loved this. ~Pam

Love has a beginning, and no end. Although it may seem to be 'over' sometimes, bits and pieces of love and hope caress our hearts and souls while new love waits to bloom.

Great poem.
