Roamers of the Dark
A collaboration by Grace and Soul
Past twilight the night
cold fingered spectres
on unkind darkness
Fluttering displaced air
disturbing as they roam
moaning the coming dawn
Whisperers call upon crawling winds
icy cold breath, stings
to nape of necks
reaching through to brush
that which has been lost
lights within the dark glittering
Icy cold breaths of ghosts past
walking cold paths home
distant memories of warmth
draw their wafting coldness near
to what once was haunt
for kith and kin so dear
Dreams, fade in misted memory
cloak lay search for lost reality
spun shoulders, sense piercing energies
awaiting...displaced... anything
as height of awareness screams silent
images of pasts play on the mind
Seeing their once beloved
in the arms of new loves
moan they louder in despair
love lost in misty memories
guarded by tombstones
their husks, once mortal coils
In-between being, wisp and whisper
riding destiny denial, craving
those graven misfortune etch attention
in fingernail scrape ply the taut fabric
kisses trim with missing air
esculent life taunts faded hungry
Blush of dawn
Brush them away
The roamers of the night
To return to shadowy land
to moan the mourn of morn before
unremembered forever more

Incredible write Soul/Grace
I thought it was very creative to
change every other stanza to bold.
It made it clear who was speaking
to those who do not know
yours and Graces talents.
While similar in styles
both of you have your own unique methods
of reaching the reader.
And for me, it seems to
be a perfect balance for a colab :)
The story was crisp and exciting
Nicely done

After reading this piece more than twice, I have to ponder and ask myself what appropriate words to describe such amazing pen you got here. For both of you, I bow my head in praises because words are simply not enough to describe your creative talents, Soul & Grace!
