 Waves shatter against the shore like an endless volley of a relentless enemy A mind lost to surf and sand; a heart lost to the sea of tears Kissed by the sun in void of a kinder mistress; scarred by the taste of salt on the lips The grand war fought among the surge of a boundless tide No victor will be named here; the only reward a decayed treasure of isolation This hapless odyssey was never meant to lead into a prison of anguish Sails rose on a desire of knowledge and love; the wind betrays both What carries to new purpose brings closer the end; a gale of spurned emotion The goddess of new life strikes down those before her throne An agonizing demise brought from afar; the hand of treachery once loved You were meant to be a protector; the bittersweet savior of the oceans But these turbulent waters convey your true impulsion We worshiped you like a divine empress; adored your very being And still we become abandoned in this forsaken place; an island of sorrow without you A barren coast surrounded by a constant reminder of your cruelty Over the bounding main of lies you linger; in our hearts and through our fleeting breath The gust a reminder of the passion once held; the tide a truth of corruption Betrayed by the seducer of the seafarers and accursed

One final saunter through a wasteland of broken expanse A failing body betrays a clever mind; a vile realization of misery Trapped in a shattered maze of iron and smoke; blinded by barriers of an empty triumph Each step finds blood; a dire need of a dying man Anguish beyond the horizons of a burning battlefield Through the tortured clouds of flame and fire she appears A phantom of brilliant golden rapture to the eyes; perhaps one last mirage Reality no longer mattered in this dreadful place; a ghostly presence was enough Life continues to fade as she comes into focus; vision struggles dearly to see The torment, pain, and frustrations of war fade too around her One hand finds the hilt of a sword whilst the other finds peace; both are stained by sin Thirst for conquest becomes something else; a longing for a savior The fearless becoming the foolish Are you here to rescue or damn; a whirlwind of tormenting doubt A blackened cloud of suffering can doom even the false heroes Sadness overcomes the last fleeting bit of hope; a strike attains purpose The bitter cold dagger finds no resistance; armor unable to resist Words cut like blade in both heart and mind Fly away now without me Seraph of light; Angel of death  The universe turns me into someone else; a shining collection of lost emotion In a sea of purity and poison; a light flickers among the trillions What is it that catches the eyes like this? You’re never going to be as alluring as you are from my vantage The closer you become; the more your colors fade away Your spark dims with every new moment The blurry beauty of an untouched vastness becomes clarity in darkness Everything I saw in you was a mirage of false hopes; a canvas of foolish ideas So why can I not look away? Your constellation of charm creates a storm inside my mind The hull of my heart melts away; this vessel was never built to last Your glimmer shines through; shatters the shield with ease I cannot focus but on the duality of your existence Every moment I draw near is like eternity; awaiting the next step You’re not what you seem to be; I understand that now But I have to keep going; this journey is a desire that will not diminish The colors are gone completely now; just pillars of blinding luster all around My life drains away; replaced with the sweet embrace of the stars A countless number of others without meaning It’s your light that guides me; your radiance that calls to me Piece by piece I become deconstructed; moment by moment You may never truly need me; but I’ll be near The gravity of your spirit was too much for me to ignore The universe revolves around you; and so now do I  Huntress of the night sky; he calls to you like a babbling brook A fool who stands between your heart and bow His arrogance and lust flow through the shallows; beneath the balefire of your moon The bringer of a light cast in the shadows of wicked thoughts An untouched and agile mind shall keep you pure; an arrow flown true But malevolent obsession is like a poison in the blood; of the mind It courses through innocence and drowns the world Pulling them down deeper; taking it all away Who protects the purity of the wild and whimsical? I call to you blessed protector; save her from the doom that was to be yours You are meager in size yet your skill is unmatched; the unbridled excellence of gods Moxie and mind hang in the sky as a beacon Cover the visage of the enchanters; a mask of irony not lost A transformation of mockery; one he’ll never know of Despoilment of her chastity will not come to be; pain will never flood your temple Be a radiant champion to your tender maidens, Artemis the Phaesporia |
