I’m losing my faith
The universe won’t fight,
The comets scatter
Into meteorite.
The sky whispers
It’s echoing our sins,
I can feel all its anger
Like pin pricks to my skin.
Lost in deep emptiness
Waves burst into tears,
Covering this ghost town
In desperate fears.
The earth’s broken core
Is now breaking apart,
It refuses to feed
From blackened hearts.
There’s too many scars
This world can’t heal,
As we all forgot
This world could feel.
K
Scarred warriors.

The earth is surprisingly resilient as is Mother Nature. Even what man corrupts, she can build off of, and find new places to grow. The end is distant yet, for as long as there’s been people who always think and such and such datecthe world will end, we won’t know until it happens I think. Nicely written!

Jennifer is looking out over the valley
the stroboscopic valley
where the trees sleep
in their cocoons of rime ice and hoarfrost
each tree reflecting the maelstrom
above the world
the belly of the night ripped
by that most brutal of the primal forces
cut by electricity
say the word
it sizzles on your tongue
Electricity!
a blind mindless lightning snake
it strikes the earth
rending and twisting the fires within
pulling hellfire into the sky
Jennifer is not afraid of lightning
she is fascinated
by the mad rending above the world
each strike is a thrill
each peal of thunder makes her heart beat faster
she feels the heat on her bare shoulder
she feels the weight of the stones lifted
against gravity
she says nothing. . .
i would touch her
wake her
hold her against the darkness
but she dose not want me to
i can offer her nothing as intense as her dream
can’t protect her from herself
can’t touch her without hurting her
startling her will shatter her dream sky
will violate her dark reverie
and she will not love me
if i wake her
she does not love me in this dream either
but she lets me be here
she lets me watch over her
she allows me. . .
perchance i am but a specter
a chimera she patched from her other lovers
a patch bandage over a dirty wound
and so i must watch
without interfering
i must bear witness
in the telling that will come
i must bear the sorrow
of her Grand Self-destruction
but don’t ask me not to cry
that would be the unkindest thing of all
