in the shadows

Give me your darkness,
I will bring you light
and never charge you rent
to rest the heartache in your soul.

I am the wind without mercy;
I live through days without end;
I feel the Earth’s pulse
beating through endless night’s iced wonderland
while the cold impatient grasp
shelters poppies sleeping in the snow,
with dreams joined in awareness
as if they know always Spring brings life
again borrowed from the Sun.

To look back through time eternal
is simply to remember.

"Give me your darkness,

and never charge you rent
to rest the heartache in your soul."

A lovely offer....one that I would make.

Masterfully written, and masterfully summed up/explained by littlewing.  Enjoyed the spiderweb tensions in it.

If you are serious....   I could use a purge..
