Vale of words river tongue,
cramp mind storm spirit.
Cloak never endings love
evokes devil, passionate end.
Kiss lifeless dreams, wishes.
envy branches within soul.
Dance upon open wounds
smear blood as river runs dry.
stitch mouth so no more words
cascade vale you hide under.
Author notes
“Don’t cry to me
When your sun wont shine
I never was the one
To turn your water into wine
You want miracles?
I’ll lend you mine
Though your selfishness
Was always well defined” – taken from 'Where Once There Was A Soul'

♠ Lady Elinor -
There are an awful lot of images in this piece for a relatively short piece, which gives the reader a lot of rich thoughts and avenues to let their mind wander down when reading.
Good write.
