Bridge

Bridge I whirl through moments etched upon my mind, Sink through midnight layers where shadows creep, Hear the rushing floods – no smooth waters find – Crumbling day light eludes vesper’s sleep. Solitude’s still waters boil – restless energy - Rushing waves clog with flotsam discarded For shores unreached – a rueful elergy - Undertows of catacombs bombarded. Shapeless forms from midnight sneer, then arise – Frantic fear flails seeing in undertows Vanishing edges but phantoms thin lies Flee as new shafts of amber light now overflow. Starshine resurrects from the hopeless night A bridge between nightmares and true sunlight.
