Staring
Through the transparent pane
Separated
From a world of vibrant colors

Me
And all I have left behind me
Hindering
Me from seeing . . . more

Dancing summer's last chance in the skies.
Dressed in scarlet she's . . . more

But gazes back at me censoriously.
It whispers words unheard; the glass has blurred
Its sound to silent noise ingloriously.
The image has no depth . . . more

He plied his trade before the pearlier gates
And holier dreams implied
And heavenliest guide.
She buried all her hopes in costliest crate
Belief likely belied
Left unallied.

Seeing her,
Eyes such a daze.
Not knowing where her thoughts were,
All just a phase.
If only she would speak,
We would understand.
She is weak,
We lend a hand.
Nothing brings it out,

I've seen many shores
It never ends
There's . . . more

we sit and watch

Managed his incredible feat
Of being worshipped with
Revealed, unrevealed axioms
Sitting on a throne . . . more

Sandmen
we're powdery people
that wake up at night
sit on our ankles
and crumble in fright
invisible sisters
glances give chase
droplets of destiny
in watery fates
smooth through . . . more

Staring out as the waves crash to shore
The sunset on the horizon glowing . . . more

Three faces, three worlds
Earth, the heavens and the sidhe
Thrice loved by all who behold you . . . more
