The Lenora Aug 2018
I've fallen down
The well of sorrow

While I'm down here,
You throw your dagger

almost reached me.

Looking in the river,
I can't see my reflection
The mist lifts up and
Creeps at my eyes

almost reached me.

Your cold, dead touch
Reaching out for me
to hold
As if I've no choice ...

I can see you behind me
Racing towards my faded apparition
Keep coming closer, closer

I can see your silhouette
Made out from the raindrops
Racing closer, closer

I'm not moving
Not at all
Yet you are still so far

Far enough to follow
Coming closer and closer

I see you have returned yet again
To light up my eyes
Upon your arrival

Drowning me in the raindrops
The raindrops that so desperately
Fall down my window
I can feel it through my senses

The storm yet again has power
Power to lift my spirits
Arise my adrenaline

Excited
Scared
Happy

and
in a trance

By the lightning's lit up dance

You have returned to the skies
I watch you with open eyes
With amazement

Your beauty is too much

And after the end,
Please return again

I can feel the foggy smoke
As it curls around my eyelids

"Open and see"

But when I do I see nothing
As if the darkness has gone

I wonder what I should be looking at
Blackness soon devours the smoke

I have become one with the night

The storm arises
As my stomach turns
I can feel the sorrow
The wind delivers

The trees sway so fast
All I dream is to be free
The dark, grey clouds
Cover my face and enter my mind

I can't help but feel pain yet amazement
As I watch the storm arise
From deep within my own chained eyes

The thought was bizarre
Though the feeling was much stronger

Has the darkness around us
Brought us closer

To the truth?

The truth lies within the rose
Covered in snow
Fallen from utter despair...

You were here in body
But there in spirit

Because the thought was strange
Though the feeling bore more power
Than any of us

She weeps too much
Because there is nothing there

Who would have thought
Of such a devastating truth?

Clinging to hope
Even then we knew
All that is here now
Is only now for here

So why must she weep
So, so, so very much

Because all that she knew
Was deemed untrue

There is nothing there
And there will never be.
