Still
Like a spiral, spinning
A wheel, constant in motion
Passion in crimson
Loyalty as water
Take the Earth, its riches
Savour, burning caramel
Fall into purple shades
Fantasy, in mind, in soul
Eyes, blurry, dead in the night
"Why does the moth only follow the flame?"
Never touching, only taking
The warmth, it embraces
'Till the scales fall sharp
Tipping into injustice
How can it taste so bitter,
yet still, so full of flavour?
Let out a hand, mind still
To understand, to feel
But the dagger digs in
For how long, could I?
Keep my heart close
To your heart, closer
I try, I try, I try
To see the unseen
Destined to dream
Because of what I've seen
I'll forever understand
Even if blades fall
Solitary in battle
The blood, like fountains
Bandages, discard
Pointlessness, emptiness, paranoia
Stay, don't fall
For they'll call
Stay, by the door
For I
No saviour to call
None left to save
Until change
No promises
No surprises
Temporal
Memory
Linger
Paradox
Still
Sincerely,
Davo
