a hallway filled with phantoms incorporeal statues of you feigning your innocence
Tag: fiction
on a single thread of certainty the eternal flame feeds
gaze long enough into the glow of the fallen star and you will be reminded of its treachery
across cold ancient waters boats carry the burden of unanswered prayers
colours forget their names as doorways open into dreameater fields
the war you almost won with your lips they now belong to verdant winds
with every toll of the bell rain buries an empire beneath secrets
end of the path pilgrims blossom in screams
hatched a pair of thunderbirds in my dream each wearing a robe of cinders that hummed of ash and electricity
after dark they salt their shadows to keep the forgotten things out
