Destiny

We have hitched our hope to a falling star
But the moment is bittersweet
For though swiftly we ride to consummate death
We live
We love
We believe.

Not the Enemy

He scaled the wall
To the temple
Replaced the heart
He'd stolen long ago
Turned to leave
Through open the open gates
Welcoming him home.

A Black Dream

Across blue waters
The heart lies red
Bleeding out into
Greener pastures.

Covered

Look with your mind at the soul here beneath
At the joy of the flesh held reserved
Self-assured and covered in promises
That no other may yet observe.

Paradox

Man is the maker of the music of dreams
For a woman to dance within
Though the notes cannot be played
Until the dance begins

Fear is a Sigil

Fear is a sigil born in blood

Inscribed upon the heart bewitched

Fed by time through wars of tongues

And sealed with a lover's kiss

You Don't Say

Water, like words,
Turned to ice
Fall upon the soul and skin
A dark and lovely magic
And the trickiest part
Is knowing
That both death from above
And reverberation
Are formed of the same small substance
Of which also make life and love.
