somebody's dungeon

The time is of the stolen moon
shadows slipping away,
to await the sun of day,
when at last, once again
the dark
in shadow play.

This dark of night impenetrable...

yet still, a moment, I'm vulnerable
to loss of what inspires heart,
to beg just a word or two, impart
   a life, a story..
no, even a whisper alludes
in space absent of this;
the duality of my dark surround.

Stolen was the light you see
with moon went creativity
now words, alas, are history
I fail to plead poetically...

and illumination stays,
  perpetually out of reach.

Lovely, quiet write. Enjoyed. Chris

that perches in the soul....
