nuits de craintes -------------------------------------------
in the last moment we come to the finale
obscured by thoughts and dreams
stepping past the oblique and envisioned
wasting time with the undesired
breezes flutter through our passions
stripping away til bare flesh shines
reflecting all that once was
and what will be
blackened waters eat at the ground beneath
and we fall
to the otherworld envisioned
rotting words expel the soul
craven light flees from its tormentor
and silence prevails
the cloakèd figurine appears once more
to lead the day from this barren place
we are left to fend and live
memories swept away by aqueous fear
of naught but black and dim
dank'nd senses dare not believe
that all is gone in death
the blood still flows and hearts still beat
however slowly they may...
shadows appear and wraths prey upon the weakened mind
ripped to shreds the soul still wanders
to discover a habitation
drink the color and feelings away
and we may live to see
all as it once was
You are an amazing writer. You paint such a vivid scene with your words. I read it three times each time still captured from beginning to end. I guess our fears do that, in a romantic movie one is not at the edge of ones seat so to speak now are they... but something tells me that in sifting through this "fear" one would find subtle reality tucked into your words, I sense that you have seen some traumatic things. In time I trust that you will learn to not live in fear, but be strengthened by your fearlessness.
