Tuesday 7.05am

The muse watches over me


Its cold

With the blackness that shrouds me

I lack the glint of the stars

 

Its cold

Frost settles in whispers upon the mantle

Dust lifts as a frozen vapour

 

Its cold

Thoughts drift like the turning of pages in the breeze

Settling on the closing chapter

 

Its cold

Lacking focus I clasp the morning air

Seeking not knowing

 

Its cold

Spiders walk my spine

I cannot brush them away

 

Its cold

My reflection appears slowly

Masking the hollow shell

 

Its cold

Words freeze on a vipers tongue

Leaving their mark on the parchment

 

Its cold

Skin grotesque etched in acid

Lips purse to kiss the dark scent

 

Its cold

As time slows and grips my soul

Heavy eyes fall and a mind succumbs
