Listen to poem:

Serene Absence

These moments evermore Please my endless core And indulge dismal desires In the sacred, blissful fires. I’ll one day touch the stars Where Libra meets Mars; While I lay in serene absence, Spare me before I commence. Deep in the rivalrous dawn Where the sun doth rise, I draw my selfless pawn As my faint heart dies. I'll journey to the unknown, Digging past winter’s bone, Where the secrets lie in wait, And my soul can liberate. And though it may falter, I'll summon my inner altar; In the rivalrous dawn's embrace, I'll find solace in my grace. So spare me before I commence On my quest for a new sense, For I know what lies ahead, With every tear, I'll shed. Sacred desires hold me, bound, To blissful fires within the ground; And please my endless core In these moments, forevermore.
