Found light, breathed deep, stepped forward.

Cool green mists Float over the sea as the run rises tremulously over the shoreline A woman wearing silk Greek silk Floats over the sand as lightly as the breeze She sings a lonely, haunted ballad Which prickles the hair at my nape As she walks past The wind whips and floats her hair With the lilting Irish breeze The resonance of the cliffs and hills The irresistible chorus of the emerald waves below her The melody of the wind The song of the sea. She mourns her lost love And as the wind carr...

"Jade" The aching silence broke open onto a horizon full of light The tremulous dawn spreading across the rustling grasses, While he stood, drinking in the delicious turquoise breaking on the shore at his feet His toes burrowed softly into the cold, crumbly sand, Echoing. The smooth rumble of the ocean awakening The soft breeze dancing across his cheek While she slid an arm around his waist And breathed gently into his side. The glass bit into his palm As drops of blood mingled with the sand ...

The light's dim shadow falls across my limbs Illuminating the jagged soul within The thoughts entangled within a living metaphor The omnipotence burning fiercely within Refusing to die Refusing to give in The murky currents of endangered lives The clouded, swirling haze of fear throbs inside the shell Intertwining reality with imagination Knowing no end Its bloodied exterior betraying the pulsing corpse within The thoughts of the heart echoing and reverberating throughout time immortal The fe...

He comes to me in timeless shadow His image comforts me I can feel his prescence I know he's there... I can feel his arms around me Holding me close I can feel his heart beating against my chest Forcefully and rapidly I can feel his eyelashes brush my cheeks Dragging downward, as if to torment me I can feel his breath A warm veil of enigma on my cheek His lips brush soundlessly across my skin Their softness slowly relaxing me I can feel his tenderness His need In every movement he makes I kno...

Bleeding into a world distorted Appreciating everything silent Uttering prayers to protect us from the darkness Rocking wordlessly Invisible tears That only the night can count Looking into the mirror of silvery uncertainty The reflection wavers softly Rippling as the perception changes Seeing things that only one can see Crystalline droplets of water run down the mirror Changing the reflections As the sky changes its visage Blackened blood lines the streets Holding tears of lives once lived ...

Memories roll across the marbled floor Haunting me With the all-too-familiar melody of musty coolness Old blood streaked everywhere The dusty silence engulfs us all As the dust and muskiness swallow everything The marble is cold beneath bare feet Curling toes towards it Dancing across the gray black coldness Sweeping me off my feet into a wordless bow Dragging my corpse across the marble I have no life in me As we dance across old silence The ground we dance on seems to swallow us whole The l...

The rose you gave me Still floats in water By my heart. I kept it Even though you're gone It floats Signifying your spirit Restless I breathe into the roses in my hands And inhale the aroma That speaks of you completely But unlike the pure white rose Untainted and true My roses are off-colored and deep With many thorns Whose soft petals of flesh Bleed dewdrops Of rich, thick blood Rose blood Sliding down the feathery skin They bleed slowly into me Renewing my own tainted blood For I am no lon...
