Renewal
Trepidation consumes every
Unfounded conniption
True colors bleed through this
Falsely calm disposition
Enchantment sheds away like
Feelings nailed to a cross
Vulnerabilities exposed as
Penetrating spirits reap the
Rejected woes that have been lost
Descending upon the holler
Blankets of fog create a sea
Refusing to recede to this
Perfect calamity
Lost in a land of
Still imperfection
Voicelessly remaining much like the
Ghosts of determination that
Once claimed and fraudulently
Used to be
Echos of a Banshee rightfully
Displace with distaste the
Eerie sound that once inhabited
Fulfillment of the case
Disparaging words of caution
Condemning the outspoken with
Brutal defeat
Chilling hands sting like
Many disappointed faces unseen
Reasoning lost in these
Webs of deception that have been
Cast between
Silence that reigned
Transmutated to acceptance
Whispers erupt
Stabbing surreal emptiness
Woefully sacrificing this corruption
Breathing with icy undoing
Falling into the scene
Remembering finally this
Ageless place of
Forgotten dreams
Releasing devastation to
Embody reclamation
Drowning in purgatory
