I Leave You In Peace

I was a child when the fear found me

It’s cursed thoughts coiled around me

Alas, I sought a path, to escape its sadistic reality

My senses flood, with fire and blood

Presented in such simplicity

The clean line quakes, splits and breaks

Liken to roots beneath a tree

The one divides

Before my eyes

Spreading out like veins, the imposters now ingrained

The golden streets will flood

With warring siblings blood

An endless strife to prove, their pathway is the truth

As their battlefield burns, I walk away

On one another they turn, I turn away

Splintered by survival’s self-serving feral jaws

Accompanied by its prideful, non-lamenting claws

You’ve created and summoned

The Destroyer of Mercy

And

The Maker of Lost Ways

Detached I am drawn into the empty, expanding horizon as it is

Slowly unfolding itself

My vision is fixed on the smoldering sun, sitting low in the

Formless hands of space

Rays of light not unlike glowing swords ride in strange

Patterns through the skies

Violent waves of hiltless blades shift and shake, turning calmly

From gold to white

They sever all that is within their grasp until this world bleeds

Soft and quiet before me

In the void I hear the whispers of long dead stars tell tales of

Order through disarray

They say behind the veil of chaos lies peace

Possession triggers change into tangible signs to see

Barren of the fruit to bear, they’re all strangers to me

I wish them peace

Respectfully
