Darkness
********
I wake from a strange dream, and think of every morning since…
Could this devil in my head be crowning my conscious, minding its disaster?
What innocence has passed is stolen, and my memories flood before its delirium
What clever creature basks in my given light, certain of my failure?
Such levity dawns upon my soul, given to its task so completely.
Bargaining with my will well it comes, startling my transcendence
Until I became something new
Stranded beyond the barrier of mortality
Now I’m stretched of mine affinity
A staggering shadow risen of its own darkness
Insatiable
*********
Gratefully regard your promise of peace as anything but glorious, as history sighs of its scarcity. Blanket this winter from immortality, as blackness breeds a common dissention and loneliness beckons for this refined companion. Do not breach the beggar’s sanctum, passing his days under gray skies; avoiding your envy hence his freedom lasts. As the best of us crave our souls have wisdom as not to be swayed by solitude and a mortal’s charms.
Alas, sometimes it could not be helped once won for an ever sleeping stranger, behests our weakest trait that’s love of beauty and its ever present security of love…. Such inferences bestow our swarthy wisdoms to witness our glassy breadth, no longer shadows but wraiths of our former light.
What is then perpetual swears its horde of indulgences, by out cresting their former lords in a soaring decorum until none has bested thence his craft. These courts have always festered to become insatiable in their decadent masques, growing larger in this boon of sufferance whence their victims become their prey.
Silent Night
*********
Savor these moments of triumph over me. Inspire thee, my loveless heir, disregarded of mine empathy. Your graciousness sins over virtue and so strikes me dead. But no one in my shame can lament over thee, named ye kin slayer.
Yay forewarned of your insatiable greed that’s summed my conscious; so now here I must rest. But alas, somewhere in this darkness rewards my silent night, as no one is undone so thoroughly, as I.
