The banisters no longer withering
self disgust
Defiance of a willow tree
blazing embers continue to burn
Having nothing
Not even immobility to
console
Dignity
straps sway frantic
Aimlessly searching for a single star amongst
Universes
a clumsy voice on soles that cannot continue
Begin to beckon
A solemn answer
A prayer
all that comes
Is a hopeless promise
Written on words and spoken through the winds that tell lies
A broken musical box
plays the same selection over and over again
Made from the midsts of a universe
One yet we know there are more through these lies
Continue to


break away


from





one piece





Into shattered disregards
burning flesh

From bound passions formless ropes

Charred

Into forgotten memories
rebel with a force
subtleness
Finally breaking through
burning veils have fallen

Ever longer
then rain had a chance to thaw iced images

They linger here no more

impacted me, "Not even immobility to console"...Aimlessly searching for a single star amongst Universes ...such deep grasp of things almost unbearable but by the beauty in which you form them
