Devils And Gods
Somewhere In The Shadow
My lover's heart, resuscitates my glow
snatching me from the grasp of pain's - dim grave
Reigniting this palpating ghost
rousing, with the brush of her hand, my veins
**
Drawing life, with the slightest suggestion
of sunlight in a field of wildflowers
Cast the deepest shades of love's emotion
away from this prison made of shadows
**
Reshaping contours of our silhouette
a captive, in a dark, unending haze
Breathing life into this false vignette
sculpted and redesigned for brighter days
****
Whatever is left, whatever I was
both light and dark reveal - devils and gods

I really like the imagery on this. Haunting. Sunlight in a field of wild flowers vs a dark unending haze; powerful contrast!
An interesting way of seeing certain things and ideas. Good job.
Wonderfully written, love this, Kelli
Superb final line!
