This was wrote to me from a true friend and I wanted to share.



Ode to My Angel Debbie

Fire in the sky
Evil spirits brewing mischief
A deathly stillness descends
Atop the sentinel corner of the tower
Azure, gold, burnt sienna bursting
Into strange shapes and twists across the heavens
Where angels fear to tread
Yet such eerie delight
A vision blinding with its aching beauty

-Gem

Alone, i stand in the shifting of days
A remnant of passing times and lore.
Your fiery shades of purple haze
Come nigh to entice me once more.

Join my silent soliloquey, my friend
Let the sun set upon our wizened walls.
Tomorrow shall come when the night ends,
And I remain as you journey once more.

Raspberry dimples
Cain husks ablaze
Black trodden cotton
Here the serpent lays

I stand alone.
Outside our castle.
Where once you called me your queen.
I called you my king, beloved.

On the roof
as the stars witnessed
our romance
the earth could have moved
and we would not have known.
We loved like a dream
in the secluded bowers,
our private world not seen.
In our thousand years together
we found life
and death,
what it is to be captive
and to be free.
You honored me,
I honored you

I cut loose the torments,
the scarlet ribbons binding me
the fiery lace bandeau
is ripped from me.

Still, I am bound to you,

Now I stand alone.
Tears
my heart, my king.
To remember you
is two eyes striking
the world on fire,
then closing slowly
vacant, empty.

Your comet has been,
I caught the tail.
