Deeper Than Darkness

Sleep eludes the dominance of mind and matter
Clean slate of dawn, clear song the latter
By sight and sound moves right and round
To sense the velvet caves of precious time

Intent, this space to rent seems comfortless
Though thinking through, seems to renew with elegance
A mind at rest, conceives conquest of imagery
Abide endures concentric blurs and purity

Led here adrift, my heart does sift the fragrant past
Where hand in hand, my heart does land and ever last
Such left to know, and even so, emotions phrase
From deeper down, a place renown of higher grace

I am not ready to mouth the words
Emotion steady, succinct it stirs

Perhaps the last sip of sanity has claimed me mute
Though dawn of day forebear thoughts resolute
Silent as the snow, the night has grown so cold
Yet sun strikes chip at darkness’ stunning hold

There stretch and yawn by noon, appreciation’s tune
My love for you by far deeper than darkness

Sigh, this is awesome.
