Of a piece to a shattered hourglass, The time is ground to a stop, Where the elapsed is convalescing, Permuting to a scape unclean, Set against the manifest, In this spring of qualm and distressing. When the wind is blowing ill, On a hunt for change, Irreality becomes existence, Cannot break these shackles, The ever-wearing trial, Always close to heart, but in the distance. Dread, without a halt, Without constraint, While the world wanes, I must pace ahead, Force out my way, Clear of this hold, Scrabbling everything I used to shed. ...The night of death never showed. No closure, no quiet flight, The days of bane and gasping shadows, I felt the sun set me alight.

Doubt
One more swell now motionless, Realness from afar, Drifting pointlessly, Into a world of dubiety and falling stars. The apprehension of letting go, A fount of cognizance and angst, With advents of dawn, Seeing through the night, to no more be recast, A future, said to reflect the age, Alight, yet dimming anew, Abaft the scud of clouds, Burning itself out – the sun that never quite withdrew.

Longanimity
In the eyes of another man, Cascading on the hearts quaking, A tragedy that was to never be named, The judgement of fate is his for the taking. My misconceptions environ me, no longer a soporose dream, These are the threads of my sanity, It's a fetch of my hollowness, benumbed thoughts so grim, Reprieve me, for I am the only kin. Life revised to the memories inscribed, Confined within the ageing strands of mind, Seeking those left undefined, To deconstruct the crux of life. A new mould ignites, contrived from past morbidity, Ever frozen in time, The voidness of this excited debility, Flares forever inside. The chasm within, a shadow well-withheld, It knows when something's amiss. When all is lost, a lesion turning gold, Retorting back the abyss.
