Midnight Sonnet
A touch of fur on the orient sea is what I long to be
A rose blush in ice crush is the sunshine of my pen
Mirror of certainty, wander through the fire, bring me the key
As the dark is near, calling through a parasite’s depth again
Midnight silence is my starry sky amid my broken heartstrings
But then, I sat unto my bed, weighing all my wheels of carved pages
Then I looked outside, whispered something sweet to dusty cold things
With my step on start, shadows ride well with the smoke of my golden ages
Tears on default, with doves on assault, I’d lie for my sanity to hold
This cold night brought me to the vein of my deep pit, I just can’t let go
It has dug unto something delicate part of my emotions untold
And so, my skin has been peeled and the darkest blood overflow
Sound of life’s unpolished, hidden gold has vanished
And again, and again, sunrise is being punished
