Cry Havoc!

I close my eyes each night with an impression

of you imprinted in my eyes,

and the obscure reflection of me in yours.

Ravishing softness is subservient

to shadows which eclipse and slaughter

the soul’s submissive sounds.

Annihilate fears, decimate doubt

with voracious, rapacious hunger.

Evocative laughter calls me homeward,

resonant of sleep, resounding beauty.

Cry Havoc! and let slip the pups of peace.

A very mature work here. This is a piece from seasoned writer who knows how to construct well thought out work. I love the line:"Ravishing softness is subservient to shadows which eclipse and slaughter the soul's submissive sounds." The underlining message of letting in all hang out and freeing you "chaos" sometimes is original.
Great write.

I like the wording and the emotions poured into this piece.

I think the original quote would have better suited with your wording even though I think I understand your intent.

Good flow and excellent word choice.
