Silent as the reaper, calming as the dawn:
bereft' by the shining, yet sulken by its charm.
Given hardships, soaring to the bone;
It was not the nightshade promise:
to behold in fear and wonder, to gaze the silver.
They are all nightingales transfixed upon the element.
Dreaming, distant as the stars; they are fireflies.
Holding desporately to their blades,
that if they escaped and found thier dream,
they would have somewere to fall back on.

I am the two-toed wanderer
