Not Becoming
Doff sapphire eiderdown
Spurn from cockcrow
Peer amid stained glass emit balmy
Contemplating
In no desire consciously arise
loll one's self
Ah, last
Dawn's servants chimed in to arise
If one must , then one must
Grunt, rubbed one's eyes
Eve of slumber before
Restless one must confess
Turmoil innermost chambers
Corridors resonated
Beckoning night's minions
Opine thine secrets
Finger tips rasp window panes
Shuffle amid courtyards
Erstwhile once was something to behold
Nowadays untamed
Tarnished statues gaze outwards
Expressionless face
One would ponder what would they speak of?
Times that have come and gone
When it was glorious children frolic
Without a care tumble down; smile
All the while innocent
Overcast draws near
Laughter no long to hear
Windows shatter
Cold stone single step through corridor
Peer underneath drapes
Veiled figure sits upon bed
Clothes tattered
Hopes and desires long gone from childhood
Misunderstood
Masquerade to play
Tapestries hung above the hearth
Simple comforts are all to be needed
Upon laid letter entailed
Fetch forth thy truth
Speak of will be
Spurn from cockcrow
Peer amid stained glass emit balmy
Contemplating
In no desire consciously arise
loll one's self
Ah, last
Dawn's servants chimed in to arise
If one must , then one must
Grunt, rubbed one's eyes
Eve of slumber before
Restless one must confess
Turmoil innermost chambers
Corridors resonated
Beckoning night's minions
Opine thine secrets
Finger tips rasp window panes
Shuffle amid courtyards
Erstwhile once was something to behold
Nowadays untamed
Tarnished statues gaze outwards
Expressionless face
One would ponder what would they speak of?
Times that have come and gone
When it was glorious children frolic
Without a care tumble down; smile
All the while innocent
Overcast draws near
Laughter no long to hear
Windows shatter
Cold stone single step through corridor
Peer underneath drapes
Veiled figure sits upon bed
Clothes tattered
Hopes and desires long gone from childhood
Misunderstood
Masquerade to play
Tapestries hung above the hearth
Simple comforts are all to be needed
Upon laid letter entailed
Fetch forth thy truth
Speak of will be
