Poems
Mar 2014
follow me, Restless
Take my hand and follow me deep
to the desires that cower in the hidden garden
there's no point in laying around
if all we see is darkness
I've left sleep behind
rolling in the dirt roads of my past
follow me, Restless,
and we’ll live to see Halley ten fold
dance with me under the falling leaves
and around the blooming daffodils
shattered cobble stone paths
carpeted in soft moss
breathe in the smell of summer rain
as we walk under crystal chandeliers
rust covered chain link fences
laced with green ivy
let's parade around in ball gowns
never to flinch when the twigs reach for our skirts
and they will reach with pitiless hands because
peace comes with a price, Restless
skin softer than rose petals are scarred from
cuts deeper than the Stone's Sword
bright eyes are as clear
as the tears that fall from them
do not be afraid, Restless,
for every nightmare has a dawn
I’ll be waiting with open arms
on the other side of the Gauntlet
come walk with me then, and only then,
we’ll never cry again.
