"The Quiet Visitor"
Faded but reflective
Worn but not ignored
The leaves that pave the way were once where our heads are
A pale, corroding sky
Above, the sun dissolves
The sins of the repented
Haunt me where I go
The lesser evil in the quest for vindication
Embodied in an attempt to drown the pain that abounds
Bellow, the roots implode
I feast upon it like vultures would around a looted grave
I kiss the ground I stand on to gently welcome this newborn age
Into the open cracks I see the glimpse of a perpetual ghost set ablaze
Approaching light
All woes are scorched in the fire,
Craddle of my rebirth,
The plunging of my being into the depths of the earth
is what makes the rivers flow
The night arrives and brings stillness to the wrecks
The coldness follows and devours me into the dismal black
Alone I gazed at the chasm
Idly sharpening the blade
To peel myself of this rot eye
Redemption in the heart of wilderness
Approaching light
All throes were bathed in the fire,
Craddle of my rebirth,
The blooming of the seed buried inside
is what makes our spirits fly

"Effigy"
Gone
Silent
Bowing to the cold
Fraught
Stranded
Reaching for the bottom
A scarred
Wanderer
Vowing to return
To beckon the sun
Until your heart is cold like ice
Embrace the memory
Of warmer days by the riverside
Still vivid in your head
A defiant urge to cross that line
Dividing timeless streams
There is life running through your eyes
Despite the fear for tomorrow
Come what may
Eternally
These scars will leave a trail of desolation
For those unhealed
On the wire
Where you found me
Right before the fall
Tears of joy would find their way to an ocean of despair
And come the end of all I’ve ever dreamed
It conjures up the rain denied
Though better days are past this elegy
It couldn’t overwrite my pride
Before the leaves had fallen down
I lost you to darkened skies
When we broke our promise
Shame found you with folded arms
Until your heart has bled like mine
Refrain from empathy
Until winter has draped in white
This haunting effigy...
...still
There is life running through your eyes
Despite the fear for tomorrow
Come what may
Eternally
These scars will leave a trail of desolation
For those unhealed
Follow and
See the stars collide
By the light of the burst
We ascend
Wallow
And feel the sun closer
Letting go of the world
To separate flesh from bone
Bone from heart
Heart from soul
Soul from mind
And live on...

Winds Of Ill Omen

"Winds of Ill Omen"
Days of autumn
Passed us by again
How brave of you to stay
A frail intuition
A slip of innocence
Sowed hope in wastelands
That clear horizon
Soon would turn to grey
and thrive in misery
Now there's blood, rain
Streaming down my face
Tomorrow will all be gone
I reached out for water, not knowing what I'd find
One lifeless dream
Spiraling down the pit
Until our eyes meet
Across the open sea
My heart thereafter
Will cherish the belief
Blinded by my hope
To cope with the pain
Tides uprooting
Sacred trees of youth
That sail into the dead of night
Bring the vague impression
Of coming full circle
At the whirlwind's eye
To neglect the warning of centuries gone by
As I awake from years of sleep
Disrupted by an unprecedented call
In the vast blackness we reap
The storm of our grand ascension
The plight of a brother secluded in silences
Could only amount to this much
That book you gave me had pages ripped and so it stays half opened like my heart's been...not today

Until The Last Of Hopes

"Until the Last of Hopes"
Carried away in the moment when I saw her eyes
Disappear again
Out in the pouring rain
If I should stay and tomorrow
Denied me the morning light
Will my reasons still sustain?
Prowling the aisles of memory
To rattle the walls inside
We’ll always be there
Safe and sound
That burden is mine for too long
The departure of all that is fond’s akin
To death itself
In all its glory
From the zenith to the pit
Caught in the arms of a crippling defeat
Holding on now
Until the last of hopes
And then we rise
Back from the siege
Yesterday’s cries
Tomorrow’s conceit
All within you
A piteous trial
Crowning the weak
A taste of denial
A taste so unique
All within me
Tied are my hands
Tired are my feet
Shifting the sands
Of time and space
I too shall pass this burden on

From Presence To Silence

"From Presence to Silence"
From the ashes of a southern star into barren ground
From the void of purpose
Slowly into a narcissistic construct of time
A frail asylum
In steady decline
Your body bears the mercy of nature's violence
And unrivaled resilience
Shown through aeons before
Indifferent to the sight of your spawn starving
Come the last light
It won't be long
Either we'll rise
Or the skies will fall
From the source comes a warning
From the clouds, poisonous rain
From the ocean echoes a plead
From the spear bleeds a shame
And we do it all over again
Cold sun
Casting the shadows of all that is dead and gone
Forged into the chasm of winter's throat
Grown blind to the rivers running red
Cold sun
When will it finally take us home?
Ephemeral asylumIn rampant decline
This body bears no resemblence to God
Unrivaled persistence
Through aeons beyond
To harvest more than what our hands can sow
The cycle of fate
Will never see an end
And when the break of halcyon days
Have long passed you by
When the last of you
Have walked the last mile
Before the dawn
When nothing grows
In this fallow garden
Let it all come down
Spiraling away
On downward waters
My sacrifice
