Silver Darkness
disconnected
in real life
and real feelings
such gems
songs of reason
he wanted everyone
to care
opened up
and witnessed
the emptiness
do we need
the silver
exosed to light
polished ever brighter
in the dark
filled with
signs in
a glowing labyrinth
of total darkness

Corrosion
fine details
other stuff
the manifest
you said
life is what
could be
at risk
a bridge
more than
on the verge
of collapse
clear away
the corrosion
unchecked
it spreads
like cancer
shore it up
only words
define
our
lives
Crimson Beckoning
Originally published 2010 pearljam.com
what they see
is the sheen
the scarlet
and black
some call me
beautiful
but i wonder
what solace lies
within the
black depths
i walk beside
there is no
beauty in this
world
only pain
and loss
scarlet
amber and sandalwood
console me
no more
crimson is my soul
heartbreak
my only
friend
moonlight beckons
its shimmering visage
haunts the eddies below
peaceful
comfort lies there
in the vortex
hidden in mist
so lovely
so easy
to slip away
ease my sorrows
nothing
and
no one
left to hold
my heart
moonlight beckons
crimson

Inside the Vault
answers
no time
stay
no, get out
step aside
there’s no room for you here
avoidance
waiting
inside a vault
what game is this
circling
is it safe yet
or will
lightening strike
as i cry out
in the
blackness © 2013 J.H.

held captive harmed innocence i wish for one night willing to try celebrate life rather than death a test all other possibilities exhausted invading forces or worse never shaken the silence appeared a rationalization not my own © 2013 J.H.
