In the hours approaching darkness, I looked up to a clouded sky

Hoping God could hear me, and the words within my sigh

And soon the gray of night, parted with a shimmering star

And I knew deep in my heart, that it was you, from afar

Already watching over, all you called your own

With the grace of God, you shine, from your everlasting home

 

 

paul

 

RIP dear friend…..

I lost a very dear friend today.  I didn’t know what else to do but write…. he holds a special place in my heart and I will miss him….

Muted morning sun

Fades the leaves from green to old

Withering autumn

Chains of Earthly Sin

chains, Chains of Earthly Sin, death, graveyard, grim reaper, Halloween Week, Night Owl Poetry, poems, poetry, sin, souls

The rattle of the wind

Knows nothing next to him

He carries the weight of hardened steel

The chains of earthly sin

Floating over graveyards

His face you cannot see

Just his lantern burning bright

To hide identity

A journey over misplaced souls

He continues on his travel

Hoping one day soon he’ll find

The one who can unravel

The binds that hold him to this place

And rid him of his life’s disgrace

Darkness Prevails

Hidden where the spirits loom

Their shelters torn and tattered

Ethereal beings meet their doom

Lost souls about are scattered

Perched upon her marble tomb

Her body broken, battered

No pleasure left, all consumed

A life once whole, now shattered

In the dank and misty gloom

The shadow of a figure lies….

 

….Darkness prevails when an angel dies

Wandering Soul

Awakening, death, life, Night Owl Poetry, poems, poetry, prayers, spirits, tomb, Wandering Soul

Lost in the waves of yesterday’s sorrow

Longing to capture the dreams of tomorrow

Escaping the dungeon that kept her at bay

Reaching for life that was taken away

Unlocking the tomb, her spirit awakens

Gathering back all that was taken

Yet she stands alone at the top of the stairs

Still seeking the answers to unanswered prayers
