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
