Fields of Lilies -A Poet Destroyer Collaboration

Fields Of Lilies ~A Poet Destroyer Collaboration~


I stand tall among the restful souls 
That has received restored innocence after death 
With a trumpet of harmony sweet fragrant bloom 
Drowning in tears that have been shed 
Soil sprinkled over me after I’m forced away 
~
Loosen soil waiting to heal, 
Seductive scents sing throughout spring 
--before the frost of forgetfulness 
Hand carried beautifully before the bells ring 
A variety of fragrances, bewitch the afternoon
From bulbs to everlasting fields of empty promises
,
~A Poet Destroyer Collaboration~ 
 & Poet Destroyer  8/5/2015

Thank you for the privilege in the collaboration
Your words are so beautiful and profound
