The Gleam Of Insects

By BeautifulCalamity

Glowing mouths of lightbugs...
fall of sight,
and time..
seeing the world as an
eclipse..
(fully tongued with sharp teeth)
Scratch at the walls,
Scratched At The Walls..
walls of bronze,
wilted spoons and silver flowers..
glisten in the sun.
(moonlight, midnight)
Redemption,
Oh purify..(cleanse...cleanse)
Lean in to me, and Smile of Sane.
Love in the remembrance of what used to be..
oh white light,
you fill my dazed skies..
you fill me with lilies,
and rocks of glitter.
to sink me beautifully..
when i flow with the (rhythm) of your
heartbeat..
slowing..slowed...slow..

    Hmm, i love this style you've developed into here - It has an upperlevel of intelligence behind it. Tricking the reader around direct feeling - leaving it slightly mysterious . Wonderful expression. [D&A]
