A Winter's Knight
In the twilight, she could just barely make out the river up ahead through the quietly falling snow. They were almost at their journey's end.
"Almost there Kate, maybe an hour or two more," she called down to her dear friend. Blanketed and strapped securely on the sled's cargo bed, Kate nodded slightly as two shining black eyes looked up to regard Jessie. The tiny black poodle, the sixth member of their sled team, Knight, whimpered softly.
"Don't worry boy. We'll get her there in time," she said, her voice muffled by the scarf around her face.
When the dogs slowed as they reached the frozen river's edge, Jessie called o

Abyss
Reach out, blindly fearing
hoping to brush the warmth of your fingers,
your hand.
It is not to be.
Only to be met with
emptiness, vast nothingness.
Choking on breath, words stick
like rocks in my throat.
No choice left, tears slip
beneath salt-crusted lashes
to mix with the sea.
The abyss yawns below,
lit only by those deep dwellers.
Welcoming me back.
I sink further into my Ocean,
into the fathomless dark.
Wicked teeth, needle sharp bared
to me in a rictus grin
as i drift ever deeper.

Left Unsaid
Two ships passing on the sea, river, ocean.
The life waters that connect us. The blood in me, is the blood in you.
My eyes slide over, our gazes, like our words
touch, never quite meeting. Spaces between visits grow.
The long silences, awkward and chafing, the only acknowledgement
of what lies between us.
The past, the present? The future,
the lives that might have been shared. The echoes of
it all resound in the gaps left between our words.
All unsaid, hidden safe and raw behind

Darkfire
The flame of my heart died slowly,
embers fading, glowing softly in the dark.
My dark, of which I am so familiar yet still find so strange.
Frightening creatures of my creation carry pieces,
into the inky depths as the last spark is snuffed out.
Then you smile.
My reflection shattered,
piercing the velvety blackness with your brilliance.
Lighting once more the barren plains and squalid oceans of my soul.
Your life giving Sun,
driving back shadows which seek to devour me.
Bask in your warmth,
lighting my face, renewed.
Ashes catch burning bright and cheerful.
But there,
lurking beyond the firelight, hidden.

Void
You left a void with your leavetaking -
emptiness eats at my soul -
my edges ragged and bleeding -
crimson footprints mark my passage -
beyond - Pain only lives here and my once
strong heart shatters -
the onslaught of memories proving too much -
You left a void at your leavetaking -
consumed from within -
the Fog envelopes me with its dark caress -
emptiness has devoured my soul -
my being ragged and torn -

Never Rise
Is this my life? Is this what i am doomed to bear?
Unsurety, confusion, rules in your stead
Doubt, yours mine - the World.
Truth, it's naught? Will i ever battle this?
Do i belong - need i be caged?
The Phoenix to never rise
burn eternal - no change...

. . . In Shining Armour
Flowers drift in endless ocean
Emptiness flows through darkest night
Light recedes when lengthening shadows fall
A dark time upon the land.
Blight and plague run free of restraint
Hope and love imprisoned now
A knight, warrior is beseeched to aid.
Hooves pound on cracked earth
Silver gleams in brightest moonlight
Dark shudders when shining sword falls
Life returns again to the land.
Love and hope flow merrily forth
Plague and blight bound in chains.

Untitled IV
Long it has been since i have been truly loved.
Began to see it as a myth, you showed me wrong.
You healed my wounds, touched my heart.
Gave me hope and love.
Stolen my heart, i belong now to you.

Thorns of Rage
Your attempts to burn through me are in vain
yet this fire is all that warms my frozen soul.
I shall never take heed to your feeble attempts to warn.
Warning which drifts empty across chaos.
My thorns lie deep, yet ready to retract and impale your spirit
like a stardust kiss splintering your heart.
In your darkest wishes and palest nightmares lessened.
Staggering in this depthless night, the barest flicker fades.
My toxins will suffocate your last breath's attempt.
You will be finished.
