The Glow of Heavenly Delights

The Glow of Heavenly Delights

An ashen and bitter voice
Crawls out of my mind
Despite the clear panes
Where a full life transpires

I am free to complain
To moan in distress
From the rolling silk seas
Where I bury my bones
Each night

I am free
To hew the old roads
Through skirmishes lost
Where valor resists
Against the currents of time

I am free
To be thankless and morose
Amid the brilliant glow
Of all heavenly delights

I am free
To be criminally young
The near-sighted son
Who implodes in his dreams

      It isn’t that good. I’ve fallen apart in recent years. But thank you so much for your support. It really inspires me to try harder.

        We are all in pieces, but that’s the fun part…putting ourselves back together differently. Transforming what doesn’t work. Keep going, your work is good and enjoyable!
