May 2014
I lay silently
My heart pounding
My veins a shattered beat of what has been left behind
The cold of the silent crystal white flakes of snow
Cause a wave of goosebumps to overflow my arms the moment that a single breath had been taken
A whispered shock of a cool sensation
Flowing through this broken body

Only an image left behind
I raise my arm slowly
Snow falling from my hand
A hollowed heart inches to a faster pace
I walk into a timeless dimension of an unseen presence
The shadows disappearing and entwining itself with my heart
Waves of darkness spread beneath my feet which lay planted on the ground

Unwilling to move I feel a black web cover my body tightly wrapping me as if I had to be secured
In a marble box
Only the key able to bring me back to life

As the sun falls I rest my eyes on a melancholy light glistening from a full moon above
The stars falling from the sky
These scarred lights from the universe above
These celestial beings uncovered by my eyes alone

I willingly shut my eyes and allow these webs of an infinite blackness to cover me forever
A shadow of the river that streams from my eyes dried as I lay silently taken over by this line feeling forever

Each web sewn together by a minds simple lies
This sullen night whispering it's steps towards a content and silent end
