Grief

Don’t want to be

Living with eyes closed

High dreams set a fire

Colors all fade to grey.

Nothing.

Let me go

And I fall into nothing

The light leaving me

The wolf coming.

Into the black my soul embarks

No hint of a spark

The polaroids

Distorted by blood.

Nothing is real

Alone with myself

I make the vow

Masquerading no more

The Moon and the Stars

Bind shining grief

Big man

Do not misunderstand

I’m not the hero of my story

My dreams are wrong

My heart destitute

But shining grief

Sparkling in the eye of the wolf

I see a light

It’s no one’s

It’s not real

It illuminates My Soul

I roam, broken forever

Whisper Secret held in my breast

Over the hills

Shining light

In the eyes of the living.

The wolf at my side.
