Long Shed some light on Poems

Silence reigns supreme in my reich

No don (except me)
doth trumpet within the aborted
barren reach of freedoms within expansive realm,
I annexed courtesy manifest destiny,
which peoples now inhabiting said jurisdiction
circumscribed by following coordinates -
Latitude: 40° 16' 22.20"...

My dreams were of the dire Queen
I had allowed her reign over me, callousing my heart,
She was inside me, laughing
Having crawled in
My walls closing, as she filled my soul
We were one, yes for a time,...

Oh, I can faintly remember
Last years' frigid December

We were like burning embers,
Kindling our fires of kindness
We were swimming in errors
Don’t let hatred and angst harness
Inside you…
Yes, I do…
Love you unbearably and truly,
So don’t be such...

Darkness in Her Dungeon
 
 
 
 
 
No morning no bright sun
 
Just nuns all around
 
To recite bright light
 
For my freedom from
 
Fear and feeling off
 
 
 
 
But I would despise
 
In the outside those eyes
 
A black bundle in swirl
 
A hostile world looming
 
All conspiring...

Maybe God has a plan bigger and better than we know

Oh Lord, my benevolent...

But, it is there that I found the quiet,
Still, cool and gentle,
Feeling so sentimental,
Inviting me to breathe in…
The music of hope and peace,
The whisper of grace that agrees…
This night is a journey...

Of how I have beheld the shadows of darkness' scorching face

Sweeping across the skies of all of life, trying its very best

To encase them, within its sorrows of sorrow!

Ink leaks from her veins in riddles,
Words scribbled in mirrored existence, 
Emulating and forming thoughts before breaking,
The floor is her canvas,
Her hands the brush,

She strokes his hair to the lyric of the piano,
The tune of...
