Lured

From within a silent deadly tomb,
where echoes of life
ring hollow,
I hear it
calling;
so quietly
in the background,
a never-ending cry
becomes deafening,
irresistible;

as if some force
can overwhelm time,
as if his voice
overpowers everything;
I am lured.

Reflection

Snowfall rudely buries
everything
under its proverbial blanket,
it slants coldly down,
razors through icy air,
borne within an evil wind,
a steady drowning snowfall
deeply disguising my world,
transforming today,
like a Death-Mask
from another life:

There, alone, wandering lost,
seeking him
in a daze of frozen time,
stung relentlessly
as the snow harshly blows,
borne within an evil wind,
into my very soul,
snowlight blurs my vision
as tears freeze
upon my cheeks,
yet I cannot stop
weeping;

Searching, yet
never finding,
a quest unfulfilled,
a loss excruciating;
yesterday blends into today:
same snow
same wind
same tears.

Rising

Soaring first
aloft with Winter's Breath,
to then fall into Spring,
a dream of peaceful sweetness,
pulsing through Wings of Flame
that burn relentless.
