Beautiful Desolation

A Poem by Cari Lynn Vaughn
"

Death and Destruction can be Beautiful!

"
Beautiful Desolation

A life laid to waste by violence and war
Sinking into sadness   into soft black sand
Stung by the bitter snow forever more
How could you ever possibly understand?

Being destroyed and left alone
There is a peculiar beauty in death
For out of my endless depth and wide breadth
Comes a sense of utter unknown

Because anything could happen here
Withered, wind swept and wild
This peril   It makes life all the more dear
Where tragedy and Triumph are Reconciled
