NIGHTERRORS VI beyond the veils of sleep

A mask Cracked but standing Not fallen Yet hollow Eyes etched into the ruins Trapped between what remains And what has been lost Thoughts through the rift, A mouth, open yet voiceless Whispers out of place Where the winds speak no name And stone withers memory Interwoven Thorns crawl heavenward Meek n determined Reaching to spires, un-obtained Faded into ash Once a kingdom It, without words spire now shadow Piercing what remains Purpose forgotten weight of eternity Something misbegotten Into fractured skin Behind the mask, eyes stare Fighting the stains darkness lingers Eyes, hollow they are, Beyond the ruin keep Beyond the walls of time Beyond the veils of sleep
