How It Ends

This is how it ends, nothing like how it beganTime has turned the page, The sage left with nothing to sayI walk away, crossing a borderAn artificial line across a very real divideNever to turn back and see your eyes looking my wayIt began rough but smooth seas calmed our wavesBlessed with bounteous apathyWe lookedContinue reading “How It Ends”

Hunting Sinners

The evening quiet as a mouse praying in a churchI slip into the night The wings of the bat its latest meal in searchWhisper to me dark tidingsMy heart will jump and give a lurchAs we hunt sinners this evening This is a poem from a prompt from dVerse: “Today we are finding different waysContinue reading “Hunting Sinners”

Why Fight Fate?

We give our love to the fatesOur lives we give over to destinyI choose not in this flight of fantasyLet the wind choose the datesIn which our eyes lock rusted upon some iron gateLogic looks down upon us frowning jealously We dance to the hidden strings of time if only temporarilyWho are we if notContinue reading “Why Fight Fate?”

Who Am I? – Sculpted

Who am I? On what level? When I look in the mirror What do I see? Who looks back at me? Can I see with closed eyes? Do I scream? When I look in the mirror Is it me that I see? Or just a figment, my imagination When I see me Who am IContinue reading “Who Am I? – Sculpted”

Solitude

A delusion of emptinessSitting alone By myself in a crowd Listening to each single drop of rainIn a storm Beating against the window searching to get inI say hello Only to have the echoes ghost meI sit alone In a crowded café As the stormRages outside Waiting for you. After All is Said … What’sContinue reading “Solitude”
