Endure
You were called to endure
By a voice deep inside
Though you deny whence it came
The word yet remains
Endure
Night has just begun
The pain only just set in
The cold freshly kissed your skin
Causing the hair to stand on end
Endure
Does night not precede the dawn?
Can the pain never be...

To Reach Beyond
I raise my voice to heaven
Hear me cry with a thousand gails
I believe you are there high up
I see beyond what I am shown
I know there is an immaculate throne
I see a river without end
I feel the shade of divine boughs
I am apart from there
But I see it so vividly
I feel the...
Captured Star
Child of starlight, where did they hide you?
Pale splendor wasted on so few
Whited halls kept spotless for who?
Sterile and stifling--you feel it too.
Do not let them drown you, little star
Their take on perfection only goes so far
Can you measure the worth of the sun?
No one can...
I had a suspicion someone other than me was reading my work.
I don't know who to tag or thank, but my gratitude to the RPN staff for both giving me a place to write and acknowledging my work. I won't claim them all as great pieces, but I'd like to think some of it has resonated with my readers...
Sometime, Right?
We meet again
Here we are
Are?
Are you?
Here, I mean
Hello in there
How far?
In there, I mean
I thought we were here
(But you aren't)
Here
You're in there again
You're far away
(Again)
Away again, aren't you?
Almost as if you
Can't help it
(Must be nice)
In there
Wish you'd...
Sepulchre
Light
O Man that fell into a chasm
How long must you fall?
The light retreats overhead
Can you still see it?
Man
I am the fallen
My soul is heavy
I yearn for the darkness
Swallow me now
Light
Can it be you are gone?
Do you reject the light?
Will you never rise?
We beseech you, Arise...

Accuser
I have spent the day weighing
Your woefully inadequate soul
Look how the scale tips against you
All you could manage was thus?
You dare think this is acceptable?
Who deluded you?
Who filled your head with thoughts of
Succeeding on half measures?
You cannot even rest on your laurels
When...

Mother's Eyes
Surrounded by masses of people
Intoxicated with wanting to be
To exist in another's gaze
I lose myself in their futile search
For meaning found in the eyes of the beholder
Inundated by these lost souls
I cannot fathom what quiet is
So many voices crying out with longing
Believing...
