Quiet the noises
Shuffling in phrases
Numbing consensus

It's supposed to flow so freely
Grace is forsaken
Animated mutely

I have that smile
Someone has always seen me before
Looking worthless guile

Or maybe secret past pleasures
Just this moment in time
Not knowing forcing closures

It's better to be invisible
Being born infinite love
Always amenable

After all is said and done
The last chapter read
Laughter is the only fun

The Shroud of Winter
Shira Dec 2011
Here's something for the upcoming winter solstice...

The darkness of the season
The coldness on my skin
I reach out for comfort
Embraced briefly
If for a moment
A shroud of sublime
In this the illumination

Prayers in a whisper
Hope in the sparkling luster on the wings
Of an angel
The one and the many
Converge by existence
In calm serenity that beckons
With each light

Lifting towards the heavens
This spirit with no body
My edification
Giving unconditionally
For the weak
For the strong
Forgiveness and freedom

— The End —
