#umbra
Trying to find my
solace in the moon of the
Fall for I lack the
lunar halo and
the velveteen, onyx shade
of yours. I wish to
be the one who at
once will make you whole, but you
are still concealing;
still hiding thyself
away behind a moonbeam
smile like a helpless
umbra does in the
sheltering embrace of the
dazzling paraselene.

I haunt the shadows of your thoughts
My nails rip from their beds
clawing sanity
just trying to climb out of
my feelings
my fight leaves breadcrumbs
but light causes shadows
even in the brightest smile
and while I prefer the shade
...or used to
I churn to life in that place where
my ebb meets your flow
****
You haunt the shadows of my thoughts
You run non-stop
floating on surface tension
knowing the pit is hollow
...it just seemed easier that way
My kindness
as comforting as it is cruel
in the shadows behind a smile
that blinds me
...beautifully
It feels like magic
where your ebb meets my flow
Float on that surface tension
I'll wait in the hollow
It's hard to move when we
neither run nor chase

A woman stands strong and sensuous and proud
Her mind a fractured mirror cloaked in fog
Shard by shard
The bayonet finds her way, following the sweet scent of the ****** rose
Wielding her Scarborough Fair
The sass of Parsley
The wisdoms of Sage
The touch of Rosemary
The passage of Thyme
The woman
Born of the dark side of the moon
With powers untold
Able to twist and bend the spindles of shadows and time
Fair-skinned
Lips full and glazed with cardinal sin
Slick locks of ebony
A perfumed 500 year blur
With the night's lunar charm that twinkles in her eye
And butterflies that swoon for their Madama
She
The blood child born of the union of the sun and moon
The black sheep of the dark arts
Is one with the most beloved of Umbran treasures
Is the sweetest cherry with a long-forgotten radiant smile,
A harsh destiny
Who looks to the left side of the moon for the upcoming chaos.

The shadow is cast
At the whim of the light
Ravaged by the same
Shattered by night
The shadow is patient
Waiting in place
Its presence unknown
Before light gives it shape
The shadow is power
To be tamed and feared
Wherever light is
The shadow is near
This shadow is yours
Pause and take heed
Embrace and observe
But don't let it lead

I hand
you my heart.
Basically giving to
you on a platter. And
what do people do with it?
in a society where artificial
is praised; the immoral and
cruel rule this world. And
in order to survive, I've
had to become cruel
because, let's face it
the world doesn't
like nor do nice.
Back on topic.
When I give
you my he-
art, I give
you all.

So love the shadows that wraps my soul.
...Ain't it funny when you give someone your heart,
You become a sacrifice. All it takes is a knife to see
it through....

Though
The stars fade
the moon yellows,
and sun begins to follow,
loosing all its brilliant power
the one that makes small things cast big shadows.
When there's nothing left but a dark world full of sorrow's sorrows.
You are the light at the end of my tunnel and my flame for you will only burn brighter by the morrow

Gloom had hung so low
My flowers have gone to sleep
Love journeyed too far
