Crystalline eyes of red, blue, and green,
Stand watch in the fields why Ravens fly.
The souls of their ancestors,
Feeding on the remains of creation's thoughts.

In a time lost place with only themselves,
The solitude of darkness knows no freedoms.
For only the light of an unknown realm,
Will break their shackles.

For when a rose loses its last petal,
Is it no longer a beautiful flower?
Was it even beautiful in the first place?
So easily forgotten.

Crystalline eyes forged from the ashes of Gods,
Never knew the beauty of their fields.
Fields where roses once blossomed,
Now a desolate land of withered stems.

Dan Bolens Mar 2014
Within the glass heart of man,
Lies a Secret unbeknownst to himself.
It rides on the back of carrion crows,
And rests on the frail strings of a violin.

Found in the generosity we provide to friends,
And the sorrows we share with enemies.
The death of an angel,
And the birth of a demon.

Carried by Gale Maidens,
It floats upon a cool Spring breeze.
Ringing the soft chimes of hope.

The Secret of Life.
Of Happiness.
Of Love.
Of Truth.

Whispered upon the waves of an ocean,
Drifting beyond the stars,
Into the vast unknown of the human soul.
Dan Bolens Jan 2014
Gales of cold breath call,
    Befallen the leaves,
She's late for the ball,
Creatures upon paws crawl,
   Weaving through the trees.

Icy embrace upon one's face,
    Frozen hands caress the skin,
Descends from Boreas' grace,
Upon this barren place,
    Coated in malice and sin.

Form of wind and snow,
    Husband known as Frost,
Disturbing rivers' flow,
Embodiment of woe,
    False maiden for the lost.

I knew her touch not a day before,
   Whence she came in November,
Wind roaring up the tor,
The last of four,
    Extinguishing fire's ember.
