Echoes: Veils of Uncertainty
A silver bird departs, the sky serene, Yet morning’s promise shatters in a breath; Ash falls where laughter and bright hopes had been, A city mourns the sudden hand of death. In distant hills, a traveler’s path grows cold, A journey meant for dreams, now left undone; The news arrives—too heavy to be told— A vanished step, a race that’s never run. Where...

Veils of Uncertainty
A silver bird departs, the sky serene, Yet morning’s promise shatters in a breath; Ash falls where laughter and bright hopes had been, A city mourns the sudden hand of death. In distant hills, a traveler’s path grows cold, A journey meant for dreams, now left undone; The news arrives—too heavy to be told— A vanished step, a race that’s never run. Where...

Premium Member Iron Veils in Shadowy Vales
From the crag I see the path descend into the valley shrouded in the shadows of doubt, uncertainty, and fear of failure. I see a white pillar cast in regret's cold salt-stone, from which there is no turning back. Even a brief glance back over the shoulder up into the bright crags of peaks above, bathed in bright sunlight in the path behind...

Premium Member In a boundless night, I slip through the veils of undefined time
In a boundless night, I slip through the veils of undefined time, where I glimpsed you as a star lost in an ocean of abyssal dreams, in a silk delirium of shadows dancing ceaselessly, where the golden horizon melts dreams into dawn, like fire melting brass. With hands that have never touched you, I reached out like a bird...

Premium Member Black Veils and Plaster
For the most part, the lost years were self-inflicted the foundation made from a hypersensitivity which had a foundation of insecurity which had a foundation of instability which, in turn, was born within the whisper of a black veil. The hypersensitivity was replaced by wet plaster allowing for the smoothing of the wrinkles of living. I'm slowly coming around-now back into the...

Floating through the veils of time Finding my allotted space Moving through its many levels Filling up with countless memories Gradually writing various ages upon my face Now that my allotted time approaches Looking forward to replacing cosmic for never ending Eternal time ...

Premium Member Darkness Veils My Eyes
Into the lake another pebble was tossed Its ripples mar the tranquility of my life Perhaps another kind friend, suddenly lost to this daughter, mother, and twice a wife Darkness veils my eyes, flowing with teary waterfalls spilling, for I've grown so weary Escape the world, according to Lin, not Garp Poetry gives way to blood lines, woes... throes Play no strings of...

NIGHTERRORS VI beyond the veils of sleep
A mask Cracked but standing Not fallen Yet hollow Eyes etched into the ruins Trapped between what remains And what has been lost Thoughts through the rift, A mouth, open yet voiceless Whispers out of place Where the winds speak no name And stone withers memory Interwoven Thorns crawl heavenward Meek n determined Reaching to spires, un-obtained Faded into...

Premium Member In the depths of night, when stars lament their solitude and the moon veils her face in clouds
In the depths of night, when stars lament their solitude and the moon veils her face in clouds, I sink into the ocean of silence, into the weight of nothingness that enfolds me like a second skin. I drift through days as a shadow among shadows, unseen, unchanged, bearing the burden of existence like an invisible cloak, a...

Premium Member In the twilight of a violet sunset, when my soul dons veils of melancholy
In the twilight of a violet sunset, when my soul dons veils of melancholy, I sit alone, surrounded by phantasms and unspoken words, whispering ancient incantations, My verses, silk threads woven from starry tears and lunar sighs, Rise towards the celestial vault, carrying the secrets of my troubled heart. Poetry is my hidden kingdom, a crystal citadel buried in...

Premium Member In a realm woven from wind's whispers, cloaked with fragile veils of deceit
In a realm woven from wind's whispers, cloaked with fragile veils of deceit, We live in the shadows of a reality built on a thin layer of lies and illusions, A world where greed is elevated to the rank of deity, and wisdom is condemned as sin, Division serves as the architect of our society, while unity is...

Premium Member Beneath the shadows of dusk, in a dance of veils and mystery
Beneath the shadows of dusk, in a dance of veils and mystery, Lies a hidden story, unknown to the waking eye. A leaf gets lost in the forest, a book in the library, And a lifeless body finds its place on the battlefield. But I, I hide in the everyday, in the banality of day-to-day life, In the evident common...

Premium Member In the veils of dusk, where whispers merge with shadows
In the veils of dusk, where whispers merge with shadows, My dear lover, do not seek a soul like mine. Seek someone more radiant, or a spirit akin to yours, But not someone who bears the unseen shadows I keep hidden. I do not wish to see their tears for your broken fragments, Nor for you to live in the...

Premium Member Under the cemetery of falling stars, beneath veils of eternity
Under the cemetery of falling stars, beneath veils of eternity, The end of any affair is death. She is my sanctuary, An evanescent eye, slipping through the magical veil, Far from the tribe of my soul, my breath Finds you gone. I horrify the gaze Of those who remain. I feed on the agony of your absence. My hand meets hers,...

Premium Member Blanched Veils There and Above
Blanched veils there and above Hold it in stony repose Throughout time's continuum And blustering air flows. Earth granted an ovation - Nodding its magnificence - But bigger still is the one Who goes and conquers it....
