Alone

Grey into black in the unseen horizon

Reflections a mere echo through piercing, small rays.

Dull roar hypnotizing a trancelike induction

Words without meaning flow numbingly true.

Lost in the specter of waking and sleeping

My impotent heart finds no solace without but

within is a tempest of sullen refraction

Redemption a cry from parched earth and my love.

Desperate for spirit and warmth effervescent

Mist of morning envelopes my view.
