Vesper

Evening
Unfurls its mouth
Provoking
The sinews of doubt

Queen of Night
A passing reign
Surrogate Pawn
In patience, its strength

In fate and faith
In the subtle moonlit sprawl
Reverberates
A path to be followed

A chaotic mass
Fluttering in dark
Through echoes
An order enforced

Cathedrals
Impose all their might
Egos
Obscure mine own sight

Evening
Cluttered hopes and sorrows
Reverberates
In chaotic moonlit sprawl

Ambregris

Blades of ink, outlast sand and sea
Within this beast, anchors stain the deep

Obelisk, to which I am enslaved
Tell me of wisdom, its escape

Black plague of expansion, power overruled
Your flesh to stone, a commoner left eschewed

Her pillars swallow, our hands from the gallows
Algol's eyes, blessed are the blind

Cloaked
Deceived
Consumed by grey amber

Hyacinth

Zephyr's passing kiss
Dials bloom begin
Again

Winds of winters gone
Pierce my light my sun
Again

Hold my brittle bones from underneath
In the earth is where my soul's blood shall sink
Your chariots of fire and flame scorch my sights
Our hyacinths from the ashes will rise into life

Vermilion

Brushed by the creek, light beckons our fuchsia to rise
Fissures against sole vermilion shine
Is she sojourner
To your vital earth?

Elise, let your hair down
Elise, don't you put me down
Oh Elise

The land bears her viscera, but we are still villeins
Her presence doth edify, bask in the shade of her monuments

Please, I am your child
Her violet heart sweetens, colors your blood
Her amber eyes reflect the aura of dawn
Please, Please

Artifice

Do your veins know of the golden age?
Does your blood run to Saturn?

Stones compound
Obscure Opal
Fear seeps in
Into our sin

Do her roots, in your heart, protrude?
Can you share the fruits she bears?

Cassia in our soul
Rabbits into the cauldron
Of artifice
Our sacrifice

Garnet

She emanates her moonlight
Warmth feeds our children's sighs

Onyx heart and jasper collide
Golden hands shine from inside
A promise sworn, engraved in mine
Arising souls, be soothed by
Our love

He sets fire on lavender ghosts
Melody feeds our children's hopes

Born in cold, their flames will ignite
Like garnet shards, embracing our light
Their spirits burn through all in my mind
On their own, guided by
Our love

Her Elixir

Arrows pierce through fiery hearts,
A son of jade the only star
The moon melds within her soul
An aura forever eternal

Her gaze blesses all my night skies
As we bathe in the elixir of life
Her limbs dance entrance my mind
Roots of her Cassia full of life

Rabbits rest under your shade
Whispers of giving and selfless grace
Broken branches my only escape
Your heart sprouts inside of mine again
