Unfettered Verses II - Dusk and dawn

Dusk

Beneath the hazy light 
Of dusk, I sit 
Alone, as lonely
As the coming night -- too sad
To journey home.

~~~

Dawn

Soon the night of pensive dreaming
Into passive morn shall break,
And jaded heart, though barely beating,
Fate shall find for healing’s sake.

I have walked so long in shadows,
Lived a life that e’er repeats,
But time has come to conquer hist’ry,
Cyclic chaos to defeat.

I shall flee this starless prison –
Darkness brings no sweet relief.
Its answers all shall stay encrypted:
Past perception, past belief.



This is a poem I made for a story collaboration with a friend. Read full version here or here

Do light the fire, dear poet -- rise
And in our journey, become wise.
Come lilt your gentle, soulful tunes
By which with God shall we commune.
