Fire

wraiths which round each other wind
flaring, soaring, ascending
a flame that burns deep in my mind
no beginning and no ending

 

a window to a distant past
when the world was young
when the dice were not yet cast
the ballads not yet sung

 

a glimpse of new paths not yet taken
towards a new tomorrow
when hate and evil are forsaken
a world that knows no sorrow

 

embers linked in scarlet lace
incandescent sinew
life and death in sweet embrace
the cycle must continue

 

 

Listen here.

Very nice! Very nice!
A good write !!!
I have an affection for wraiths...
They are unusual entities


Don't let any one shake your dream stars from your eyes, lest your soul Come away with them! -SS
