The Dove’s Bluff

On the horizon one Dove bluffs

as the other suffers 

the ailment of The Bent Sycophant.

Knowing what she knows

is Wrong.

That the Great Good she did…

was thrown.

Thus she shattered

the fragmented remainder

of her taken heart.

As her wings burned

somewhere deep within

she yearned.

She asked Him to guide the way

with his compass and light;

She prayed for him to eternally

love her, even in her darkest night.

The dove she once was

faithfully hoped

as her exhausted wings smoked.

her DESOLATE life

she could not survive.

whimpering for a sign

that the black blinds

would polarize.

She Lamented the Tears of Resignation.

her most DESOLATE night

revealed a shimmering day,

but through that night

she could not stay.

Prior to that glittery day

her Angel did not say,

“everything will be okay.”

In Desolation, she prayed.

-The Day That Came Too Late-

And on that day

She Passed Away.

 

The Lyan’s Dive to Franklin 5

Ink runs dry

like tears I’ve cried

like memories

of Year’s-Passers-By.

Love’s bluff

cloaked in Lie

Borderline’s vines’s

leaves all dried.

A-Self set aside

in Stone, beside

the Ink I’ve Cried

the Life I’ve Dyed.

Love’s Perfume: Cyanide

Love’s Eternal Suicide.

Devoid Of A Void

Red reverberations trickle
but the Scarlet kinds
Stab.

Scarlet Eyes
something I…
will always find.



Scarlet Eyes
something I…
did not design.



Clinging
to Hope
A-lone.



Suffering
the inverse
of Singing.



Scarlet eyes cry
by Suicide
She Dies.



Scarlet Eyes Dry.
The Child Inside
Is Still Alive.



She is
Devoid
Of a Void.

She Perceives
Reasons
She Believes.

She trades
Life’s Pain
for Faith.

My Scarlet Eyes

See Love, Above.

my Burnt Heart

beats in between

Majestic Wings,

Eternally.

Burnt Hearts Heal
