hidden spirit, I shall leave a light on for you

The tug on my breath pulled me down to the ground,
Grasping infinity I had shaken out of place.
Crawling back to the center, the mirror shown no face,
Disdained, stricken, a sealed crate.

Half slanted,
He knew no grace,
Strife became his middle name.

A pull at my breath left me with such a fright
The way we chose was never for I...
After the worst came dust,
Here I spoke not,
Confined to darkness.
The thread leading back was cut,
now I pick the way.

Strife

My favorite line: Strife became his middle name. The joining of the third person possessive with the creation of a new entity (midname) was genious. Pure poety - Best wishes - Lady A

That is all.
