Felt a chill again this eve...had to repost this memory...


From clouds of silver teardrops,
Tendrils of past stream down
Sense it in a heart-stop-
As we walk the barren ground…

Within a moonlight apparition,
Silent echoes of the mind
Explain away the superstition-
Yet still feel the chill behind…

With the faintest sagacity of sunshine,
Silent wisps of the departed fade
Veil it for another time-
As we meander on our way…

Yet, they seem to strike a covenant,
Between most worlds and mine
For I’m living with the dead
Trapped holding the sign…

Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...
