Shadows of Dahlia
*
please don't make promises
they are foul lies
seek validity in shades of pastel
bringing life to a stale breeze
**
Race with me to the top
of the purple mountain
where vibrant green
alluvial patches look like us
only happy
***
Voices spill platinum tears
dusting my path,
I watch them rise as stars
touching the night with
soft cradled peace

It's hard to forgive and forget because of our corrupted governments, but I have hope for peace. Keep on writing.
