Looking past

A ribbon of black
smooth and cold
the sheer rock walls
and a twisting path

dark lies the clouds
that be for me lie
and the golden warmth
left so far behind

I know not where
which way to go
and the memories fade
of what lays...

Once I knew

Sitting now in still of night
and in the darkness reflecting back
of all the ones that I once knew
and only memories remain unto me

oh how I wish that I had
something which to I could cling
that I now could again touch
as once then so...

Blackened leather

Thundering roar turns into scream
as it simply can give no more
push it on a little more
as every bit of thrill obtained

in release it drops off
as the scream quickly fades
and the pounding of the blood
to contemplate thought gives way
...

Echoes

Echoes of silence
blown upon the wind
whispers that unheard
steals the words away

flying dust touch
slide across the skin
etching paths of coldness
yet nothing does remain

heartbeats surge with fullness
then empty fades away
...

Torn

Tattered edges
yellowed with time
stains long forgotten
just memories lost

binding is cracked
paint flaked away
fine cotton string
loops empty and broke

pages are missing
memories ripped away
words half remembered
stories fading...
