Dignity
By hopeless
The banisters no longer withering
self disgust
Defiance of a willow tree
blazing embers continue to burn
Having nothing
Not even immobility to
console
Dignity
straps sway frantic
Aimlessly searching for a single star amongst
Universes
a clumsy voice on soles that cannot continue
Begin to beckon
A solemn answer
A prayer
all that comes
Is a hopeless promise
Written on words and spoken through the winds that tell lies
A broken musical box
plays the same selection over and over again
Made from the midsts of a universe
One yet we know there are more through these lies
Continue to
break away
from
one piece
Into shattered disregards
burning flesh
From bound passions formless ropes
Charred
Into forgotten memories
rebel with a force
subtleness
Finally breaking through
burning veils have fallen
Ever longer
then rain had a chance to thaw iced images
They linger here no more
