Premium Member Watching the Wake
Watching the Wake The river serenity incarnate. Water like a liquid mirror holding the sky, the trees Light falling in late summer eve perfection. We smoothly glide along in the small boat With old friends, Saying nothing. Looking behind us all the way For hours, fascinated I study how our wake unfolds behind us From a tossing turbulence To a small and perfect wave behind that, Curling...

Premium Member Wake up and hear the silence
How long do you think you can ride the coattails of blissful ignorance? Isn't it flagrantly obvious that you are skating on thin ice... and equally evident that you're living on borrowed time? How long do you think you can get away with avoiding the elephant in the room? Have I been the unjaded enabler whilst my silence should have screamed to you louder than any multitude...

WAKE UP!!!!
In the echoes of the night the one lonesome sound of a train not knowing where it’s bound It rolls on past the towns the rivers and the bends around corners unseen As danger lays in wait anticipating contemplating its next move along the cold steel rails that’s bound for heaven or bound for hell only...

The Other Side of the Pillow
In the dark of night, where dreams bear bloom, and silence reigns in my shadowed room, my pillow waits, serene, composed, awaiting my sleepy head to doze. Beneath my head it yields its form, to cradle my crown from day’s storm, and offer a sweet night’s repose, yet pillow’s thoughts, who really knows? She seems so sweet, pretends to care, yet every night disturbs...

Wake Up!
Wake up. Wake up! I tried to pry my eyes open. Wake up. I clawed and clawed at my open eyes. I could not wake. Why could I not wake from this nightmare? Wake up. I stopped fighting. I could feel it coming back. Everything came back. It played before my eyes once again. Over. And over. And over...

The day I dread most Silences fun five whole days~ Wake too soon, return too late; Hours drag on like stones.

Premium Member THE WAKE WITOUT VIGIL
THE WAKE WITHOUT VIGIL Time longer than rope Chokes hearts dangling In the reality of struggle:- Grieving mothers and widows Veil their grief in sagging bosoms As they wail in excruciating silence:- Fragments of men, void of hope, View and count communal graves Swelling with dirt burying the dead:- (Buried are “The Wretched Of...

What sleeps while I wake?
What do my dreams do when I'm awake? Do they fall asleep and rise again as I grow tired? Or are they alive all day, living a second life beneath the skin of mine and I just miss the daylight hours of the dream? Are they alive? Do they come to me in glimmering bursts just as my eyes begin to close? Are the dreams my real life And daytime my...

THE WAKE OF MANY LIVES
Take a look at what we see. Out of mind, past the dreams. A cataclysmic path to roads. That carries secrets no one knows. Like skin we shed all we dread. Replaying lives once we’re dead. Watching the air as we breathe. Following madness into the sea. Silence tells us don’t turn around. Lest we see what’s heard in sound. All connected, forced to divide. Eternally...

Did I Wake?
Eventually got my final sleep tapping my soul miles deep. Drift into the dream unknown, where the mysteries of the past are sown. Can't withstand the view I saw, grasping my chest as regret claws. My head thrashed wildly to and fro, the storm of dread began to grow. Mustered the courage, I rolled my fear like a worn-out sleeve, The shadows whispered, begged...
