Unknown Cocoon of Ending 2

Unknown Cocoon of Ending           2

Sleeping obsidian 
In tiger eye veins 
Languish unknown cryptics of beginning
Hidden form of inevitability 
Ending where the fatal knell 
Shall rest and tally the chronology

Oblivious

Silent 
Reside
Unknown cocoon of ending

Must fall now persona non grata
Inviolate, childlike perhaps
The lucidity too quiet
Too petulant for relief
Still undisclosed the peripheral 
Breaths on release

Populated by shadows

The catcher of falling tears

Hope

Mute
Anchor
Unknown cocoon of ending

Darkness sleeping
To be known by the pit
A sanctimonious belly of beguiled fools
The fratricide of light
And homicide of faith
Shall rest and count the cost of stupidity

Oblivious
