A Traipse of Light

the relentless unbroken light breathes in the fathom night walking darkness one last time tousled red silk strands ignite dying strings for bleaches smite ruthless emerges the sun hits behind a mask of dust window shades and layered rust the broke back addict bent in more buys sight unseen eyes to the floor begging beauty to reflect the fuel to feed hopes neglect turns the wheel for kaleidoscope effect colors splattered over shattered glass spinning silver in lights finesse pressing images in depth of design waves engulf a surge to tide spilling into twilight's gloom a knee upon surrendered doom the world a blossom in perilous bloom her petals sculpt destined wings rise in hue to sail or sink fall for battered might scattered fireflies clutter bright seen as fiery spots across the sky the humble tumble freewill’s divide a chance of life or death divine as they crumble side by side reaching for heaven to find the relentless unbroken light Terry D’Arcy-Ryan
