You kneel, shivering, Overlooking your world. With the knowledge in your mind That here is the core, Here is most true. The eyeless storm, with cold grey lightning, and crushing thunder, lording over a world of ash and dead trees. Like a draught From the mouth of a demon, the screaming wind savages your form, snatches at you heartlessly. The gale is the only sound, To permeate this plain, And it steals your joy, And batters you onto your knees. Trying to render useless your escape. You want to run To hide away in pain, But there is only here now. This dreamscape you created Within you.

The Storm
You kneel, shivering, Overlooking your world. With the knowledge in your mind That here is the core, Here is most true. The eyeless storm, with cold grey lightning, and crushing thunder, lording over a world of ash and dead trees. Like a draught From the mouth of a demon, the screaming wind savages your form, snatches at you heartlessly. The gale is the only sound, To permeate this plain, And it steals your joy, And batters you onto your knees. Trying to render useless your escape. You want to run To hide away in pain, But there is only here now. This dreamscape you created Within you.
