More Than Just SightTree heartMore Than Just Sight by ~shadowysilence
Beat, beat
Honey scents
And lushness,
Hidden away
Far from
Our eyes,
This world
Forbidden to
Us, for
We forsook
It long
Ago, the
World of
Dew leaves
And chilly
Mornings, of
Grass and
The singing
of bird
And beast
And plant,
But maybe
One day,
We may
Come back,
When we
Close our
Eyes and
See with
More than
Just sight
No One Thought Anything of itShadow Strewn StreetsNo One Thought Anything of it by ~shadowysilence
Their hats tilted down,
Covering eyes small and fast;
They walk with a vigor
And briskness of one on
A mission, or maybe one caught in the rain;
As the cars pass by,
No one thought anything of it,
Why would they?
The Inevitability of Being LostWithin this cavern dark and deepThe Inevitability of Being Lost by ~shadowysilence
I reside among the residue
Of days long past
I am compressed, held down
And within this mess, a smell
Most rancid permeates all
Within my folds are refuse
My dirty life is day in and out
Holes in my soul growing larger
When my usefulness has run out
I will be yanked free for a mere
Moment before being washed of my sins
And put back among my kin
To await my apportioned time
Until I have worn away into dust
Leaving no trace of my once glory
Whiteness of snow embracing
With the hug of a lover
For now I trudge on
Awaiting the inevitable
RisingFalling in the deepRising by ~shadowysilence
With hands weighted down, cold
Blood from glass wounds does seep
Broken forms, shadows told
Of the shattered man here
With a dead heart, not bold
Dim stars in the pools peer
Like so many blind eyes
Seeing reflected fear
Within him, how she cries
The maid beneath the skin
Hidden, yet never dies
Up, up, light growing thin
Towards birth of new death
Where the lost man has been
She rises, takes new breath
Fire born, like bird of lore
Rising from ashen wreath
