muted ballad ballerina (with Rain In The Willows)
By indefined
a doorway stands
as an empty frame
inviting an exit
recieving an entry
silk swathed sorrow
caressing the borders
with winds to come
a wind that has
already been
she .drifted. in
a summer's breeze
crept on hallowed thoughts
a muted ballad unwhispered
She waited, hauntedly...
In cat scratches
and green eyes
she cups her hands
in the rays of dawn
trying valiantly
to gather a little light
and press it against her chest
so that in some small way
she can once again feel
the warmth that fled
in feline fixtures
of snowbound security
she opened her arms
around an ivory lover
and tears glittered in her eyes
thoughts and fragmented memories
she danced:
under a [broken]
Octobers sunset
again
the droplets find no earth
frozen forever as intricate
snowflakes that paint her cheeks
mute testament to her melody
the rhythm of an afterlife
twirling in a rose petal dusk
and she danced
through the †ashes†
of evenings serenity
once more
silver dreams and luminesence
scattered about the air
shards of a past unremembered
but yet to be forgotten
in the moonlight's glow
she beckons one to join
in her dance of ebony empathy
and Dahlia's in the stars
fleeting translucent moments
linger in her trembling lips
that part for another breath
and inhale ashen memories
whispering within voidal visions
lost without the harmony of an echo
despairs' sigh floats free
and as the storm rages on
in a white abyss
frigid blues
frail flesh takes on
a shimmering glow
cast in fading mortality
viole.n.t innocence
and dying fires
a doorway stands
in an empty frame
inviting an entry
recieving an exit
sliced silken sorrow
tracing the borders
with winds to come
a wind she has
already seen
She's sleeping
in the clouds tonight...

I really enjoyed this one. You can really handle the descriptive words. I felt a paintbrush working in my mind. I loved it so much because it wasn't a clear picture. but foggy and left for interpretation. I like it better that way. I can't wait to read more of your work.
