Dark Embraces in the Blue

A collaboration by Grace and Soul


magical hues, twinkling starlights
rushing through scrambled universe
cool the air on throbbing silver wings
flying towards the beloved with love  

carriage calling for home
star shine speck gleaming
brace bound dreams graze with conditioned trust
ripples far flung blow emotions rush  

portholes open into the night
breaths' vapours lend matte
dream scenes on luminous glass
joyful sights of tomorrow's hopes  

kisses tending blow from Heaven
hello goodbye embracing instant
clippings for fresh feathers stretch
borne bright for Gods eye  

happy hopes for kindred meet
dreams behind fluttering closed eyes
memories of distant adieu
making sweet the welcoming smiles  

Elysium fields roll out golden
quests acquire breath of butterfly
calm slips tranquil drifting aloft
place upon kismet ever dawn  

then dreams sputter in terror bind
flying iron and steel vessel shudders
silhouetted against the darkened skies
it shudders as Aurora Borealis manifests  

She drags close, despair hugging earth
set sad eyed cross brisk divide
fear trembled waves from family, friends
pounding of hearts race screaming peace  

the blue below welcoming rages
the turbulence of oceans await
the wind that in unison screams
with those strapped on their seat  

sold unto fate for pennies
beholden for thy presence given
fragile life propels pulse into immortal
all time is caught captured oblivion

As an eagle with broken wings
as a dragon with fiery roar
diving to towards the turbulent blue
the iron vessel screams down  

Slapped harsh along silent wide openings
desolate whippings besting we without knowledge
howls heard for scraps of hope
Safety gone with numbers lost  

indignant voices unheard, fiery bubbles stop
they are brothers, sisters, mothers and fathers
living and dying within one belly
the silver sarcophagus lie supine to rust
