Baronhawk's Nest

In the deep I find solace
in the dark safely encased
the spark excised hope-dead
reality the only thread

the depths my saving grace
the surface futility sealed
a dreamer forever clipped
broken wings submerged by fate.

Tis the pommel and the blade
Well-used, oft-wielded
carbon edge, honed
leather grip, toned

sharp of sheen, razor shone
lacerating skin, tearing bone
but the pain it works, last the most
on rejected hearts, forthwith remorse

cold stark steel, dulled-grey hearts
born to feel, eclipsed inside
forlorn worn shorn, teared-up torn
sheathed slashed stabbed, love-lorn.

Distance divide us
regulations forbade
this instance of happiness
I cannot evade.

Our eyes keep brushing
quick smiles exchanged
my heart keep singing
your gaze my refrain.

Your voice my compass
your presence His boon
this rose I covet
you and I, to bloom.

"Let me tell you that I love you, that I think of you all the time"
~ Caledonia

Words and more I have aplenty, feeling like I want to fly
deep within my heart completely, beats the song of you and I.
~ Hazlan

"Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high.
There's a land that I heard of, once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue.
And the dreams that you dare to dream, really do come true."
~ Over The Rainbow

I cast my dreams aloft, to swim the midnight seas.
A wish to thee I craft, my heart upon shy sleeves.
~ Hazlan
