- Flood -



The flood of shattered memories
is all that is held in the dead
halls of the dark guild of you.

flood of broken passion
smoulders in the furnace
of the spirit:
 a coal
  you stole
   to warm
    your soul
     and to try
      to make
       you whole
but there's always something
that splashes on the ashes
and extinguishes the flame of hope:
 the thing
  that rests
   inside
    your breast
     and suggests
      the quiet bliss
       of emptiness

A pillar to emptiness is built;
a hollow edifice to immortalize
the empty cries of futile hope.

fin.
