“Silently”
Silently she stands there
As night falls upon her head
Depression embraces her body weak
And
As her heartbeat falls upon her chest
So does her tears fall upon her cheek
In heaven she might do well
With this angelical look
But
On earth she casts her spell
Upon the pain
Which within she dwell
As beauty slowly fades away
Darkness covers her face
Withdrawn from this place
Lost
Within darkened melancholy deep
Waiting
For sunshine’s return
But still standing
Silently
And as her heartbeat
Still slowly falls upon her chest
So does the teardrop upon her cheek
In heaven she might do well
But
On earth she casts her spell
Upon the pain
Which within she dwell
Silently

You have such inimitable style. This poem is haunting in its imagery. I get a picture of huge soft eyes etched by pain.
Great job!
