Ground

A 'read and respond' type of verse... haven't done this in much too long, but I like the way things turned out... sometimes a little inspiration is needed :)


Ground

Unsteady ground lies beneath
empty fields of sand
watching you drown by my hand
falling underneath

Illusions scream soft their lies
never knowing truth
lost in ever-loving youth
growing oft more wise

One more trip around we take
til our days of death
understanding found in breath
fairy tale in wake

I feel you still, all around
angst and love akin
it is from here we doth begin
on unsteady ground

Set Free

Not done, not right, not right now...


Set Free

This maybe-love has me crying
tears of joy and seas of sadness.
Deep within I feel like flying,
crashing, laying down and dying.

Death beckons you and calls to me
in dark of night by moon and stars.
Things as they are should never be,
no time remains to set you free.

Free from all that holds and binds you;
misery caused by one held dear.
Descending now, thoughts come unglued,
taken, twisted, perhaps abused.
