The Empty Vessel
When love leaves, it isn’t a soft rain—it’s a thunderclap, splitting the sky, leaving you standing in the middle of a field with nothing but the echo of what should have been. You become the broken branch, quivering in the storm, a kite lost without its string, floating aimlessly, a disconnected dream searching for home. You forget who you were before love wrapped itself around you, tethering...

Premium Member My heart is a vessel filled with the ocean of endless love for you
My heart is a vessel filled with the ocean of endless love for you, but when your screams shatter the silence like relentless storms, when your hand rises like a cold shadow on my skin, and your words strike like lightning across my furrowed brow, I sink into the scorching memories of past traumas, red nightmares like blood, nails of...

Premium Member Life as a Chosen One
Living in a world, I know I don't belong. Wondering if I did something, to cause this wrong. Feeling deep inside, my life was never meant to be mine. Always searching for answers, I cannot find. Living 61 years, upon this beautiful earth. Learning recently, my life was blessed since birth. Fighting strong feelings deep inside, I know now I cannot...

A Temporary Vessel
That's not your father lying there. That's simply a temporary vessel from the Lord, a spare. His soul is in Heaven with his lovely wife. He's no longer in pain in this worldly life. He's risen to Heaven to be with our Father. His blindness and weakness no longer a bother. He's made new again; he can see, he can run. I...

Silent Storms
A weir holds back the river against the flow of the morning tide I wonder how many thoughts, unspoken, lie behind its barrier- ponderings of love, turmoil, betrayal obstructed by the dam of emotional blocks struggling to break free from their confines.

In life’s great vessel
In life’s great vessel, we sail on the sea, Do you trust in wealth that is fickle and free? False praise surrounds you in your time of cheer, But when you are gone, your name disappears. A young man with virtue is cherished and bright, His knowledge and wisdom will lift him to a height. Why dwell on deceit or petty...

THROUGH THIS VESSEL
Remnants remain, of a once vibrant passion Scars bear witness of the abrasion The cracks are but an indication, of the wars fought For a quest to find that which was being sought Ruins still stand of a majestic castle, that which was a haven of loyalty The echoes...

The Vessel pt. 3 - The Midnight Hour ~{Renatus}~ Toll of the bell at Midnight Hour, High above, —the full moon still Below, a sepulcher in darkness devoured, Encased in fog and Winter's chill An ebon fowl of blackest plume, Solemn, —perched atop sculpted stone; Keeps vigil over accurséd tomb, Till...
