Awaken From Within a Tomb
LOVE'S LOST IN THE LAND OF NOT
John (Winged Warrior)- we've not forgot
Your heartfelt comments and lovely,
Soul...
A beacon of light- the way you'd Roll
He'd spread his wings open wide
IN THE GALLOWS WHERE WE RESIDE
Across the oceans and over the,
Seas..
His writings ride amongst the breezes
He came to me in my dream last night
To wish us well with love and light
AS WE JOURNEY FROM OUR MAIDEN.
WOMB...
To keep our writes like hearts abloom
From the womb- till his depart
He left behind, from within his heart
All his poetry for us to keep,
When...
THE CURTAIN FALLS WITHIN OUR SLEEP
*In dedication to John (Winged Warrior)
The TITLE and the HIGHLIGHTED LINES are taken from John's very first poem written here in PoetrySoup- titled "Love's Lost"
John had amazingly but not surprisingly won the POTW honors with this brilliant poem. I am sure I speak from most of us who knew you, John. When I say R.I.P. you genuine soul. For those of you who are new to PS I urge you to read some of John's stunning poetry.
LOVE'S LOST
We awaken from within a tomb
As we journey from our maiden womb
Specks of dust within a storm
Like a shattered symphony in it's mourn
Love's lost in the land of not
Ancient ruins that time forgot
As the serpent lays the road ahead
We count love's layers that are shed
In the gallows where we reside
Love and fear live side by side
We shake hands with destiny's vine
Where past and present intertwine
The curtain falls within our sleep
As love's lost approach the deep
Can hope survive in the dragons den
For these are tales of sword and pen
