Burned Away

The golden light,  herald of dawn Before it’s might,  the silky clouds last not long. They burn away,  fade to naught And above it all,  blue sky is wrought. I feel a kinship to these fading mists Burned away by the trials of the world. Burned by my own golden light As it shines,  so far off,  yet bright. I crumble. I fade. I turn transparent,  I am a shade. The winds blow,  tugging at…

A Thoughful Muse

See the shadows within grey blankets Looming like monoliths Hidden from sight When day turns to night Behind the swirling veil of delight. The golden light comes The veil begins to rise Like a curtain drawn from the stage The sights within bloom,  they amaze. The misty shroud enchants It’s mysteries are enhanced By it’s a shimmering dance Let the shroud entrance your soul For in the…

Push Onward

Exhaustion takes it’s toll Misery follows in it’s wake. Still life moves forward We know what is at stake. Push on,  through the unending pain. Push on,  for the promises they bring. Chasing the dreams The meaning of life. Push onward, through the darkest night. Push onward Towards the rising light.

Come From

I come from a place beyond all time Seeking the love,  truths once mine Wondering what in this world shall I find? In the darkness the shadows now writhe Shall I ever truly survive. Or shall in darkness consumed I thrive.

Fire within

The burning fire buried within Hidden just beneath the skin. Warms throughout the night Always there yet out of sight Seeking a gentle touch The embrace of fate Before it dwindles Tis far too late

Song on the wind

Hear the song on the breeze Whispering between the bare trees. It speaks of warmth Of summers delight. Of an end To the long night If the days returning with all their strength. Of hope and joy through all of this. Of love and chance Of the great dance.

A Little Time

A little time And all shall be fine. A little peace Will flow to the mind. No longer In a mind. Everything will be alright As one lays down In the dark of night.

Solitude

‘Be alone; that is where ideas are born. ‘ – Nikola Tesla Still nights, filled with shadows Here I sit, alone. No thoughts, no fears. No plaguing doubts. Only me, and the stillness about. I fidget, wishing to break the spell. But I push on Knowing it’s hell. My breath, a siren to my ears. My heartbeat, a thunderous cheer. I stay alone. I sit with myself. I learn truths. See visions…

Today

Time is fleeting It passes one by As in the end All withers. All dies. So live today For tomorrow is not yet here It may never come Though it is near. Smile with joy Shed tears if you must It’s who we all are In this world of stardust. Love even if it hurts Perhaps then most of all For tomorrow has not come And may never Gone like the setting sun.

I Am

I am the Raven, on black wings I soar I am the Wolf, I howl all alone. Yet I am the water that falls from the heavens And the light that shines through the skies. I am the wind that blows through the trees Yet also the whirling colorful leaves. I am everything and every one. I am nothing, and all that is to come.

One Day

One day we will dance again I’ll spin you in my arms One day we shall laugh together From twilight until dawn. Take my hand my dearest muse As we explore the heavens. On wings of shimmering shadows We fly across the veil. Touch the moon, circle the stars In wonder we shall soar Across the realms of mystery We return no more.

In Silence

I Smiled

I smiled. As I wished her well. Heart heavy Yet hid well, she could not tell. I turned, walking away. Darkness embraces Demons come now to play.

Miles and Hope

Many miles have pulled us apart Yet still you’ve held my heart. Through pain and torment Longing and woe. You have held a piece of my soul. So many memories, held ever so dear In my mind they play. Falling like tears. Wishing always for you to be near. I gaze at the stars in skies black like ravens wings Wondering if you look upon the same thing. In my heart I hold these dreams…

Shadow escape

In the darkness all things turn black Once in this realm they seldom turn back. The light fades away, a shimmering gloom One filled with baleful doom. Stretch out ones hand For the little light that remains. Cry out in anguish Tis always the same. From beyond the shadows no help shall come No hero shall stand by your side Many would rather watch you fall, perhaps die. In the end claw…

Winters kiss

Feel the cold as it brushes your skin As it seeps deep within. Frost coats your bones It makes one wail and moan. As winter has finally come The icy hell has begun.. The air freezes with every breath Bringing a chilling death As winters onset has finally bloomed It’s frozen kiss towards you now looms
