Cracks In the Sky

Cracks In The sky.
.
The dark forbidding ominous sky
Can no longer retain and  hold back
The tears held within depths of it’s shroud
And begins to crack
.
Darkness consumes the ravaged soul
And seeps continuous from every pore 
Neither will bewildered spirit 
No longer endure
True love is the salve that heals all wounds
Without it
Wounds fester remain open and painfully sore
.
The hideous preying reaper hides
Within the obscuring shadows and waits
The kiss of death
The release and deemed my fate
So I may not dwell in darkness and limbo no more
A welcomed liberating kiss
To end my excruciating  pain
Succumbing to nothingness
No more cracks in my sky
Or floods of rain.
