RandleFunk Feb 2019
Thunders roll through riven skies
spring's sweet caress on sodden ground
Gentle tears on wind swept eyries
quagmire depths grip them bound

Silken hush o'er fallen spires
Tear stung eyes feel their breath
How the sands have ebbed away
Concealing hate and bitter death

Empty heart's serrated trance
Rapt in winter's frozen grace
Distant spectres call redemption
Trapped forever in this place
RandleFunk Feb 2019
Outside the darkness
coiling and cold;
Inside - the garden,
balming and gold.

Sheer walls of obsidian
no structure was higher
Gleam’d black and unyielding
To petrify endless chatt’ring liars

Through dew dappled verdancy
sweet laughter sings soft in the air
bucolic days drifting, hazy and lazy
(ignoring the shadows that aren't really there)

From thunderous flashing torrent
Plucked from the devil’s maw
Under the Aegis of Truth
you can’t hurt me anymore

With warmth, sun, soothing rain
We sow ageless golden seed
From when you stopped mattering -
is when I was freed.

— The End —
