Inter the Cold



Fortress of peace ... 
dark entrance
Graduated depths,
steps icy

No more emotional eruptions
just volcanic slumber — 
Something inside has died

Quiet brood ... 
at what price came this cursed silent relief?
Left with only a lonely penance,
seems the calculations weren’t heartfelt
Wavy shadow movements increase

Flickering regret moments,
tears dripping ... briefly melting Arctic attitudes
Aurora nightfall gives illuminated rest,
as smouldering rage slowly cease
Wind whispers listen at a frosty distance,
creating such tranquil space

Gathering calm
beckons a cavern catacomb soul to go 
where another rappel elevated heart went
Open mountain air   ...   no secret crevices
for the solitude to hide
Inter the cold,
and let the cooling revive 

Let the northern exposure erase
all of the igneous pain
As the buried passion escape ... 
feel the snow peak 
kindled heat,
and watch the bonding of the flames 
borealis rise
