falling from grace
we neither shone nor chimed.
was the kingdom as to heaven
as wisdom to a rose,
was it fear that deceived the wisest
was it envy that we loathed
given dreams, these crumbled wings
that wilt the very earth.
fading was the sudden burst of light
as faith was but a glimmer
falling from amid the night
glistening now never.
Would you take everything i gave,
and bathe in my mistakes
or be the brave
and put everything at stake
to pain, that will maim no more,
bathed and white-washed, to be righteous
the path that you claimed no more.
you
emerged, closely entangled by grace,
felicity, belief, what is a memory?
a small spangled embrace.
a pendant, wore, as a key
a dream, you was white
as a hope, you was seen
as a sky, you was this wavering kite.
You was faith, as faith in all.
As the distant streetlights glow
into these pockets of blackness,
I find myself stranded standing alone
whispering repetitions unto these pockets of night, as madness.
Now feeling eerily nostalgic
as the twisted desires
spun as if by magic
but emptied out to consolidate the now precarious dream.
Morbid-demented
as i was the one tempted
by the temptresses seduction,
now said to gleam.
Glancing
towards those lulled out screams,
no consequence to the sun
now drenched beneath the superficial mist...
drowning,
was I the prey to the black widows web now spun
The deepest of words, from the sternest of heads,
the deepest of hearts, to the deepest of reds,
From the briefest of moments,
the deepest reside,
From the briefest of moments,
But how can I be lonesome,
in my own eyes?
From the loneliest of moments,
as these eyes open wide,
so many elements, divide these oceans,
These maternal thoughts
of a future distant,
we become immortalised
because our mortalities, are written
Beyond our mortal lives
we breathe from the dead,
From the strongest of minds,
to the wisest of heads,
The wisdom that guides,
the weakest to be led.
I saw the crescent half-moon silhouetting
repetitions of its silent notion...
these respective tongues
harpooned to erect a silent poem;
As shadows now marooned by light
excelled to cascade
through rocky-roads in twilight.
I recall the hearts of those
who maneuver through serenity and stumble
what i saw was plenty and vibrant,
a single night of many i came to humble.
What we had prior was this melancholy smile
eclipses of solitude
we run while finding solace within the half-moon.
Seasons had left me lonely
if only to covet the open that loomed...
Was the emptiness so powerful an emotion
that stirs so endlessly.
Beauty, many envied
and the seasons cried so plentifully
so unintentionally was her plea.
She stood out and so her nature.
Many became like vultures and swooped
with the intention to maim
yet they were no closer to the truth.
I am but a lonely dreamer by LumenArtist, literature
Literature
I am but a lonely dreamer
Losing my family, my love, my home
a part of me faded
yet faded into the palest bone.
I was like the angel
of the palest stone
searching for the heavens
yet knowing i was alone.
This lonely eve
was greeted
by lonely dreams
depleted.
Only me dreaming
of dreams the deepest.
Crying a hundred... no a thousand
tears.
Was this the final chapter
or another to the distant near
to be at rock-bottom
is that the path to disappear.
Regardless
i am but a lonely dreamer
and my heart slips deeper than first appeared.
Cries we darn't and shan't utter by LumenArtist, literature

Cries we darn't and shan't utter
We strike to the core of fear, fighting
fierce, when many would shudder
shedding bloody tears,
cries we darn't and shan't utter.
Such solidity shall carry the worthy
to share war chants to speak of victories
with each life we spare
they will chant our name so vivaciously.
In awe not just in warfare
but in war and peace (that we aught)
or lessons we have taught at least.
The greatest possession
is what which we possess and what we perceive.
The most valuable possession
is the life which we share and odyssey.
The armor which we had-wore
is that which shepherds sheer and sheath.
The sturdiest weaponry and the love i arbor
Oil-paintings, pastels, pigments,
a memory captured in still-life.
Looking at dire expression
what i saw would last me a lifetime,
as beneath the black-lines my spirit would stir,
startling all those who would stare too deep.
So eerie was the blood bruised exterior
many could not move nor speak,
Paralyzed by fear
as in the distance there was a distant shriek.
Grotesque. Those who knew it
drew no breath.
Just from a single glance, a grimace,
felt like-the direst wrong.
I felt petrified,
as my own death, is what i had witnessed all along.

Shimmering as an otherworldly beauty
You're white-wings
were whitewashed of impurities.
Now i was lost in the premonition of the smile,
now prized from you're lapsing-lips.
Brought to life; by a silent in memoriam of you're existence,
sealed by light, your urge was a candle wick.
Channeling; white
you spoke of silent charms...
you showed yourself as a Valkyrie walking upon the earth
now wearing the whitest wings,
You showed you're truest halo
was so sightless and unhinged;
often crystal-clear translucent
you could see the stars shine, so quiescent
like a tranquil shrine,
you would glow florescent
what you wore drew light,
shimmering as an otherworldly
