The Muse in the Darkened Path
Soft path beneath hard ground
Greenery wrapped in tender leaves
The music of nature all around
Withered twigs rhyming with the breeze
I sought a night when the moon was bright,
In a day when the sun was caught.
Light was fought with that girl's naught
To see if my heart was wrought or not?
I see a cadaver deep inside
Waking from a long nap after that sight
Her presence leaves me with nowhere to hide
Soaring atop the silence, like a drifting kite
The first sight of her played a symphony upon my heartstrings
Dreams dispersed in a manic daze
As leaves shed over a thousand springs
That manic moment, gazing at her pure and pristine image
We could fly forever and still find no way
The darkened path won't let me flee too far away
She stands quite, the moment I stray
I faltered at the first calm ray
It was a wonder that met the eyes
It was a severance that touched the soul
Light stolen from the tethered skies
The depth of her void, made the circle whole
