The power burns
rising inside chaotic thoughts
and earth comes tumbling down
falling at dirty feet
messed up in today's breath...
Though secrets remain
among the few who inhale
deeper than light
and louder than time ~
reaching out
I call upon the universe;
take a peek
at what's left of our song
out of tune
orchestrated to bleed ~
cutting into the heart of man
dying...
Yet what lies beneath
can upturn the world
a better way
to be
it's within
the passage of thinking
I'll change your mind
and we can play again....

Brilliant, oh, this reached out and grabbed me to be sure. This is gold in my opinion dear.

Oh beautiful, this flowed so beautifully when read aloud, your imagery is always second to none so nothing surprising there, just a gorgeous piece, goodluck in the contest
