Shadows Bring Wildflowers
Claims are made that
hope is what will keep you from becoming ravenous for love seeking withered hope
It's Paramount to the
Fight inside made to battle the cycle
It's a razor edge circle
beginning to spin smoothly but...
one wrong look
one wrong word
One wrong action and
blood will flow as a river
Sorrow swelling it to overflow
Deeply the wound resides
Inside the depths of Who You Are
The Shadows have arrived
Surrounding you as they sit with a
Hopelessness that flows like smoke
Seeping into your skin
Masked by a luschious fable of love
It feels like a last supper with a
Disquitude that overwhelms, as the
Crumbs of love and scraps of hope
Are ravengiously inhaled;
but it's never enough to fill the hollowness inside,
because hope just isn't always enough; and love is a double edged sword
if your not careful with cautious adorations
OR maybe I'm just gluttonous and require a straightjacket
Unfourtantly the Crumbs are poisoned, and the scraps are rotting and rancid, and the straightjacket is crushingly tight.
Tiny bits at a time it decomposes
Leaving the fallout inside my eyes.
Sincerely believing death to be
Rattling the door to your cage
Sending the warrior to protect what's left, but its flawed in its fight, because its
Addicted to some semblance of love and
Ravenous for hope
It risks anything and everything just to possess one more crumb of love, and even smaller scraps of hope.
Its elusiveness becoming a shadow of a hostile lullaby you desired to learn; as perhaps it might pay for the
hope and love you desperately seek.
Entering the eye of the storm
Knowing that its calmness is a lie, and
soon it will violently rage against the
fractured fragile heart and threatening the soul.
Destruction leaving it immensly unstable
I fear that it might crumble to dust, and be
stolen by the tempest
that comes and goes with its
Tenacity to bring you to your knees.
It threatens to steal away all that
protects what is left, only to depart
Leaving wildflower seeds in the
Cracks of who you are
Providing a need for someone strong enough to catch and carry the water from my storms as it trickles from my voice, and drips from my eyes,---
pain made physical; so I can
Water the wildflowers the
shadows bring.
