Letters In The Sand

Letters In The Sand

Away went the tears
Falling on damp sand
Blended in the  pages
Written by my hand

Here crumpled letters
Tears and ink blend
Tearful stained pages
I cried as I penned

Letters lay at my feet
In a tearful downpour
Streaked by tear stains
Each page I then tore

Heart-rending pages
Hands began to shake
Wishing you could read
Or view my heart break

Heartless have no eyes
They never understand
Feelings from my heart
Now fall  upon the sand

More tearful each page
Letters began to scatter
His silence reveals to me
My heart did not matter
Hope
