We are caught
in the spiral
of a serpent’s eye
A circle of time
where there is
no escape
A dimension
of waves
nauseating
unfulfilling
Staring back at us
its scales tipped
inharmonic tones
Surrounding
dilating pupils
retract and restore
Slowly sinking its venom
into ever waiting veins

The Sunless Sky ~ #freeverse #poetry

Darkness, you are the night

That shines in ebony brilliance

The black that ignites my soul

When I bask in your pitch

Seeking the shadows, your eclipse

Cimmerian in color, distinct

Is the ink of your veil, and I

Your most loyal servant

Find myself, again, aphotic

Closer, to the sunless sky

Uniting as one, with Erebus

She stands among the fallen leaves

Her gypsy soul envelops them

Awaiting the moment, where

She can become one with them

Deep in thought, her dreams, surpassed

She clings to them, for comfort

Knowing soon, as the seasons change

The trees will surely welcome them

Unspoken words

Rubbed against pages

In our minds, caught

In a void of noise, reaching

Out of bounds, trying

To find the release

Of electrifying verse
