endings

I have said my goodbyes.
The shadowed heart died.
Desperate pleas met with silence.
Unknown angles.
Unchecked violence.
Waters swirling, crashing forth.
The force of the sting entangles.
 
 

hidden

Words spill forth on the page
A caffeine stained assessment of our lives.
How simple it is. 
The words all lined up neatly. 
Prim and pristine.
Hiding the molding husk beneath.
Always more than the eye can see. 
What skeletons do ye keep?
Do they scream in the night
Waking you from an uncertain sleep?
 

destinations

‘pon glittering hills
trod well worn hooves
place and time
do not matter.
the pattern is set
this game we begat
will end with the
bite of an adder.
 
 

the hunt

When dreaming of the other place
Keep your eyes open, mask your face
What you don’t see, can harm you.
In the blink of an eye, they’ll drag you in.
The water here, it glitters in pools
Drowning passersby, the silly fools
The unicorn, she runs alone
upon crashing waves, a siren song
Dragons take to the air
Soaring.  Owning the skies.
The wild hunt [...]

gather

trembling rafters
cringing, creaking
close the door
it’s slightly squeaking
bolt and latch
and chain and lock
the whipping boy
is on the block

A Shard

Her soul reflects in the polished glass
She felt it cut deep
Sanguine beauty, dripping cruelly
Heart of the young
Flesh of the weak

swirling

journey into timeless slumber
aching, wanting, torn asunder
 gasping for air
being dragged under
