Of Purely Personal Interest
Held within these hallowed bones, a tempest
Surging in the complicity of night
Dreams and thoughts solidified cease to rest
Sealed fate and ardor no longer hold right
But what force havocs through the human form
Rallying support, red-handed, inflamed
Bloodied and raged it beckons the storm
Searching my want it liberates and maims
Ceasing the nihilism once alit inside
Splinters and fragments partner, I awake
Aware that being lost is proof of life
Resolve, once muted, no longer at stake
For now, I lie, held within my own war
Awed and breathless, I await whats in store.
