Green to Grey

I have before seen flowers spruced such to convey meaning,

And I have before been offered a rose,

Of tantalizing beauty.

But I sit here in a meadow of dandelions,

(The weeds of a flower)

overgrown,

For the world had left them unkept.

I do not see tomorrow through the glass made today,

Instead, I watch the moon shift in the sky,

And I pray.

Withered leaves

There's a thing in the woods that I cannot see,
Stood with solid grass-green eyes and rotted teeth,
a willow-thin neck, Contorted.

But oh, how I've seen

but a glance of this thing
- Within my dreams -
Sat beneath an oak and pine tree;
(I’d felt uncertainty).

Now, I feel as though I'm lost,
Lost in the despair of a fated dream,
Watching as the being sits, solid b...

My god,

Oh, spin there where the moon does not shine!

Can’t you see the light seeping deep into your hollow home?

Yet you sit there and ponder how the dirt had once made up your body,

Against the wrath of a god,

My god,

Comes again the ax of the wind into a tree m...

begging for a single drop of water from the sky,

but

what must I do,

Especially when I cannot provide such sustenance even to myself?!

It truly brings back memories of helplessness and fear that I h...

Dear you (Second)

Wait for me,

beneath the stars of the sky,

before the glass pane window looking out towards the sea.

---

Within a warm and comforting home,

you’d built for me.

Wait for me,

to find my stride through patches of daisies and roses,

to spot miraculously the blue amongst oceans.

To realize now down beneath the shore the gold hidden deep within m...

Dear you (Myself)

You will overcome the silence.

You will confront the fear.

And when it comes to the quiet at night

That rings in your ear,

You will,

Surpass.

You will experience fear,

A plethora in fact;

But Keep it hidden,

beneath the ocean of dreams.

But,

I must say this,

The world is too dark to not set aflame;

burning through the world...
