A ravaged body, howbeit, floats
Sailing alone, she’s a mystery

Silken cloth once carried her
Across the endless, bounding sea

Morning shines its ethereal glow
Upon this torn and battered maid

Who once set sail, her victory,
Yet, into the mist, she begins to fade

With the rays of light that warm her soul
And let her spirits wander free

This mighty ship still journeys on
In search of immortal destiny

A light beyond me beckons

A wooden door within a wall

Sunshine marks the sacred place

Deep inside this hallowed hall

Beams that cross in symmetry

Mark this place they once called home

Spirits linger, lost in time

Forever, left to roam

Among the empty corridors

Casting shadows in the sun

Haunting visions capture me

There is no place left to run

For just beyond what eyes can see

Lies a kingdom, far more grand

Guarded by phantom warriors

Who, behind the door, now stand

sunbeams
The soft whisper

Of a silent hello

Filling my ears

Calling out to me

Letting me know

In this place filled

With so much pain

And confusion, that

You are still here

A comfort in my world

Until we meet again

In yours….

As the rising full moon calls

Ethereal life

The Haunting

face-636092_960_720
Brought about by blackened night

Shadows lurk beyond the light

Causing you to doubt your mind

In your dreams, you seek to find

The open door that’s let them in

The portal where it all begins

Spirits haunting as you sleep

More appear in slumber deep

Wandering about the room

Moaning, in a somber gloom

Yet no one hears them cry but you

You have to wonder what is true

Do these spirits fly among the beings?

Or is this just madness that you’re seeing?
