can you hear the tales of sorrow sung by the howling wind hurtling through the trees toward cliffs where they rescind into the deafening silence locked in a broken heart can you feel the mournful wind from this world depart
I can hear them... So loud and clear that it hurts. I hope I can change a little bit of something, but I feel so powerless. Bless you for these words, God.
I've felt this way. It's always a relief to know the mournful wind will depart, and joy cometh in the morning. I think the Psalmist said, Weeping may remain for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. Joy to you again.
"I look ..at the world...see the world as its sleeping....while my guitar gently weeps...with every mistake....we must surely be learning...as my guitar gently weeps.."
Yes,I can hear it. And to be honest, sometimes it comforts me because it's so familiar and then I know I can grow stronger from it.Like any wound, we are left scars-sorrow simply leaves reminders of the things we cannot change. xoxo
Sorrow it it marvelous, I might say it is my favourite one so far. It feels so autentic. It reminds me of poe's prose, the sorrow you both express, and the perfect way of writting it. I wonder if you feet such pain when you wrote that poem? I think you are great
Oh! for sure I can hear these beautiful words, that now echo round my mind carried on that mournful wind. Eight lines only but completly covering this "tales of sorrow" - Thank You

The winds soughing and swishing through our trees last night, and today I read this wonderful poem.

so touching, when I am saddened, lonely, hurting, feeling sorrow, I hate the sound of the hollowing winds

Your words define my feelings today. How did you know? "This too shall pass". God bless you Shadow for sharing your amazing talent.
ReplyDeleteWow. That took me right to places I have been before. It reminded me of cold winds through barren trees at a time of broken heart and keen despair.
ReplyDeleteBut I'm not there anymore, glad of it, and thankful for the reminder of how good I have it now.
they moan like a mourning dirge. broken hearts are hard to miss. beautifully told, i feel it.
ReplyDeleteI've felt this way. It's always a relief to know the mournful wind will depart, and joy cometh in the morning. I think the Psalmist said, Weeping may remain for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. Joy to you again.
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling it today but doing my best to get out of sorrow and into gratitude.
ReplyDeleteI have heard many things in the wind.
ReplyDeleteI easily got your meaning. I have felt that too.
There are more things sung by the wind and locked in a broken heart that can ever be revealed.
ReplyDelete"I look ..at the world...see the world as its sleeping....while my guitar gently weeps...with every mistake....we must surely be learning...as my guitar gently weeps.."

simply leaves reminders
of the things we cannot change.
