Sleepless

Folder: 
Weird Muses

Shadowy floods of woods

Whispers of pale face death

A silky drapery falls

Into each forlorn breath



Winged creatures in sky soars

With their moony coverings

Every moment of the night

Frighten in their hoverings



As a vapor slips about

Fog rises upon breast

Exhales of dementia

Souls wrangled into rest



Sinister lava rolls

From sober memorial skies

Proffers lie by awaiting

Torment each ether sigh



In this dim lit valley

Among shadows of a dream

Ruptured slumbers thirst

Provokes another scream



Sweat beads form like dagger's

Crest upon my weary brow

Consciousness from madness

This pen becomes a plow
