Blue on Mauve

Look into a mirror not a screen you’ve seen a soul                                                              a mind defined face to face fallen from grace                                                        too late to change a course once free.

Alone you stand to find confined inside your cage:                                               Regret and sorrow follow thundering within your heart                                      Your inner space defies you to find                                                                                        who you think you really are

Can all be lost in one line                                                                                                            is this piece of misshapen phrase undermined by wasted time                                                     While waves of muted thunder cascade                                                                  around the nothingness where the souls whos future emptiness                                      is destined only free to drown.

All is balanced by one word                                                                                 Between sweet birds singing in soft melodic rhyme                                                                                                                       or the executioner’s hand to sever the head                                                                              of our madman’s innocent crime.

                                                                                                                                                  At last to find a Love entwined with kindness                                                               lined with blue on mauve veined petals                                                                    flowering with new hope wandering the path                                                           Glass polished green and seem less                                                                               with future unseen the gift of Love given life                                                                       in peaceful tranquillity.

Silence beyond words endowed                                                                                 with grateful compassion abounds around to satisfy.                                                                                       I rest my case at your command:                                                                                                                                                                 To lie in waste locked in some forsaken place                                                                         Or, walk the earth an innocent man.
