A Stone's Throw
eyes like two cold blue stones
conquered evil heart
ivory dice thrown
like daggers prescise
hits a fatal mark
warm fluid seeps
the dreams escape
like lost air from balloon bouquets
life expires lazily
while everyday clouds fly free
a glimpse in the darkness
just a blind hope
tarot reading useless
the fortune tellers broke
two cold blue stones
stare into a crystal ball
heart broken eyes, weep diamonds
for dreams are but illusions
magical masterpieces failure
to salve a broken heart.
