Points bury their heads in shame forever...
School hours brought...

It stalked me, in sharp-edged silhouette
It bore my shape, but evoked a darker hue,
Mirroring truths I’d buried and denied.

aspiring mountains and meditative sopheric sea waters 
The frail road deepens into lofty thickness further from the harsh...

To listen to the screams of skies,
And to feel the pounding of droplets,
As the sky showed me its demise.

In its fury it banished the stars,
And under the lighting it pour...
